#3 Latest Technology
Looking back at the 1950s, one can’t help but notice how technology has evolved over the years. In this era, technology was constantly progressing and becoming smaller and more compact. Take cell phones, for example. They started off as brick-sized devices and have now become incredibly small and thin, fitting perfectly in the palm of our hands and pockets. The same can be said for televisions, which were smaller in width but much thicker. The lady in this photo appears to be impressed with her new TV, but she would be surprised by the advancements we have today.
