In the 1940s my Dad used to develop photos using chemicals, then add touches of colour with water colours.  The effect looked much like those old pix.

For the modern man who lives in the city, riding a bike might be one of the only ways to escape the humdrum monotony. To take off and ride. To be both at one with nature and one with the bike. To feel masculine. Adam Piggott

This is nothing new only the process and technology behind it is

Mum and dad had a black and white photo of us two kids enlarged and what looks like a hand painted image done in the early 1960s. So I imagine the grey scale to colour chart has been around for quite some time.
