Even before the invention of the digital camera, people took a lot of pictures of a lot of things. Some things that were very strange even then, some of things that were then perfectly normal.

One thing is certain, this great collection of historical pictures will amaze you!

1. The Lobster Walk

What do you do when you have a pet lobster? You take it for a walk because lobsters need exercise too!

That is what we assume is going on, it may as well be the other way round, we are talking about the 1950s…

2. Mobile Bookcase For The Sick

For a period the LA Public Library had a mobile book service for patients in a hospital.

This bookcase on wheels was rolled from room to room so everybody got something to read!
