Office Heatwave, 1951

These days, when your local area is hit by a heatwave, it often actually makes it a little easier for you to get to work—because everyone wants to get to somewhere where there’s a/c!

But back in the 1950s, the women working at Bardwell & McAlister Electronic Plant in Burbank, had no such luxury. That’s why you can see them all heading to work in super short shorts—to try and stay cool during the working day.

Though in many ways office attire has relaxed a lot since these days, it’s still a pretty iconic shot even by modern standards.

The Amphicar, 1964

Nowadays we can travel all over the world using a huge variety of modern and efficient modes of transport, be it planes, cars, trains or boats. But does anyone remember the iconic launch of the Amphicar? This was an “amphibious car”, meaning it could operate on both land and water. So if you’re driving along the road and see an interesting looking stream, you can just bound right in and sail through it!

People still own amphicars to this day, but they’re not hugely popular. This was one of the first outings of the iconic vehicle, floating along the Regent’s Canal in London, England in 1964.
