Exceptionally Interesting Historical Photos:
The 1950s '3-in-1 Kitchen Combination.' It came with a stove, a sink, and a fridge - all in one!

During the 1960s, Lufthansa flights offered draft beer to passengers, a time before even a petite woman experienced discomfort on my flight due to the narrow seats and cramped legroom, resulting in a hostess frantically requesting passengers to remain seated despite the excruciating discomfort, yelling at us, You Vill Sit Down.
The 'Iter Avto', the 1930's version of a GPS. Developed by Touring Club Italiano, this device was more like a “map guidance tool” and came with a set of paper maps. It was tethered to the car’s speedometer that kept the scrolling of the map in proportion to the speed of the car.
The original Moulin Rouge, Paris, 1914
Our tour guide in 2015 got off the bus all decked out in high heels and direct traffic because we were in a log jam for an hour after she watched a police officer on a motorcycle clear the traffic for himself only. We barely made it in time. She called the Moulin Rouge and said you will save their dinners. We ended up eating our dinners while the show went on. It was at the end of our AMA Waterway to Normandy trip. Great memories
Niagara Falls without water, 1969
Niagara Falls without water. In June 1969, a joint American-Canadian commission decided to dewater them for five months to study the geological composition of the falls and forestall their potential destruction after a series of natural rockslides over the years.
