My mom is a subsitute teacher and she was telling a class about like back in the 50's because they were reading a story from that time period. One of the kids raised their hand and asked "Was everything black and white back then?" because all the shows from that period were black and white.

I used to believe that the world was black and white because of the photos and felt sorry for people in the past

When I was little I watched a lot of TV with my grandma. So I asked her once, "Was the world black and white when you were a kid?"

Brianna

I used to think people in black and white pictures lived in a black and white world.

I remembered as a kid lookin' at old photos of my dad and then seeing a video when he was about 7. Bearing in mind the films were in black and white i was fascinated. I used to think in the old days everything was in black and white, not just on film but actually in REAL LIFE..like the sky was grey.

I used to believe that there was such a thing as 'the black and white days' as I thought black and white films were real and people actually lived in black and white with no colour

I used to believe that life before the 1950s was in black and white, like the films!!

From watching old tv shows in black and white, I wondered when did the world change into color??

As a child, I used to believe that at the time of Black and White films, everything was black and white outside and when I was born I brought color. It took me a while to realise when my dad said "You brange life into color" He didn't mean it literally.

I used to believe that color was an invention; roughly around 1955 or so. The world prior to the invention of color was black and white (of course). The rationale was that all old movies and television shows were in black and white, and therefore, color had not been invented yet.

I used to believe everything was black and white in the olden days.

I used to believe the world was black and white from pictures from the past.

Nicole

hey i used to believe that because tv was in black in white before the 60s, i thought the world was black in white before then. i believed someone dropped a can of paint and it created colours and the world as we knew it was created... i was very young at the time!

When I was about 2-5 I used to believe that color didn't always exist. That someone actually invented color. I had all the proof, pictures of my grandparents and baby pictures of my parents were in black and white, old movies were in black and white.

Jessica

I used to believe that because TV was in black and white, the world in the past was all in black and white.. Yeah.

The Bard

I used to believe that the world was black/white/grey before. Because that's how it looked like on old movies : )

oysea

id watch a old fashioned film where the colour was black and white and belive that in the "olden days" colour such as reds, yellows and blues hadn't been invented yet hhehe x

chloe

I still have a hard time imagining a historical event in color. When I think about world war 2 or earlier, I always picture it im my head in black and white even though I know better

Michelle

i believed that people and the world in the olden days were really black and white and that that was why my grandmother was pale and had white hair and why my mum dyed her hair and wore makeup because she was black and white to and she wanted to pretend she was younger. hmmmmmmmm so that why children shouldn't be made to watch old movies with their grandparent

When I was about six years old, I loved watching black-and-white t.v. shows. But because I watched them, I thought that life when there was only black and white t.v. was actualy black and white!
