A 1930's view of the possible future - Lilith7 - 29-01-2023
From a German artist, Echte Wagner, who designed advertising cards
Interesting ideas - he was right about phones to some extent anyway & a plane which rises & descends vertically.

Very interesting, I think I saw some of these pictures when I was a child in the 1950's

Its intriguing to see what various views of a possible future were from back then. And likely still will be, hundreds of years from now - assuming we haven't managed to annihilate ourselves by then.

looking forward a hundred years from now one might predict a barren rocky planet and a bigass pile of rubble...

Probably populated by cockroaches; I remember reading somewhere that they're the most likely to survive most things.
