#22: Postal Workers on Electric Scooters, 1918
There are times when inventions are just too ahead of their time and forward-thinking. The world is just not ready for technological advancements until years or even decades later. Take the humble scooter, for example. Scooters had a resurgence in popularity in the early 2000s, and electric scooters are pretty common today.
These guys were way ahead of the curve, though. These postal workers were living that scooter life before it was popular! Considering that this photo was taken in 1918, these scooters look pretty modern. We’re not sure if this post office, in particular, used this innovative mode of transportation, but they at least look like they’re having fun.
