Throughout History of the ever changing history of the world, moments have conspired that sometimes make us wonder if we are any different than our ancestors who lived one hundred years ago. The answer according to photographic evidence is definitely yes in some cases. While most of us will never go to a drive-in movie theater or hang our babies in baskets out of the window (as the pictures will explain), these ten vintage photos from the 20th you to the realization that much has changed since

The Movie Drive-In

Although there are few drive-ins left, this is not a sight we're likely to see again. Drive-ins like this one in Indiana used to be packed with towns full of teenagers.

Ballerinas Walking The City Skyline

Men weren’t the only ones balancing on the edges of buildings back in the day. These ballerinas held practice on the edge of building, and it doesn’t seem very sturdy! Hopefully this one a one-time thing and they all made it out okay.

Broadway In 1936

While Broadway is all up in lights in the present day, back in the 20-30's it was much simpler. While it will probably never return to its time of such simplicity, it is nice to see pictures where there was a minimal amount of advertising and more focus on the architecture of the city.

The Window Knocker

Our phone alarm clocks can never be taken for granted again after seeing this picture! Believe it or not, their used to be people who would knock on your window to wake you up if you scheduled them to!

The Baby Cage

Just looking at this photo of a baby hanging out the window makes me nervous! The story behind these is said to be that people who didn’t have gardens would put their babies in cages outside! Good thing we grew out of this and started doing more inventive things, like taking our children for walks and to the park.
