When my mom used to show me pictures of her as a child, they were in black and white, so I thought that the world was black and white when she was younger...I always asked her when the world became colorful, but I dont think she understood me...I just couldnt figure it out hehe...

Raised by my grandparents the photo albums were full of black and white pictures then they suddenly became color.When I was little I thought the world was in black N white and they invented color sometime durning the 50's.I asked my Grandmother how she knew if her clothes would match.She thought I was strange.

My dad watched a lot of re-runs when I was growing up. Andy Griffeth, Ozzy and Harriet, Beaver and stuff like that. So I believed that when my dad was young and pretty much before I was born that the world was black and white. Color was "invented" around the time I came into conciousness.

I used to believe the world used to be black and white when watching re-runs of old shows

I used to think that black and white television shows were black and white because they hadn't invented color yet. The color TV programs were programs made after they invented colors.

I used to believe theat when black and white t.v was around the world was actually be black and white and i remember actually asking my mum "when did God put colour into the world?"

I used to think that the reason there was only black and white tv was because the whole world was only black and white, that color in the world was new.

i used to think that the world used to be in black and white since all of the pictures from that time weren't in color.. for instance i thought that my grandparents were black and white and lived in black and white until later on when they turned to color

When I was little I believed that in the olden days, life was black and white, like old tv.

I used to think that when they made black & white movies, that everything in the world was actually really black and white until color was "discovered". Man, was I dumb!

when i was younger i used to think that before colour television was invented everything was black and white and so before the 60s everything in the world was black and white!

I remember watching TV as a child, and sometimes I would see older things filmed in black and white. This lead me to think that long ago, there simply was no color in the world.

When my daughter was about 6 or 7 years old she was asking about some event in the past, presumedly during the time when I was young. She said, " You know when everything was black and white."
I realized that her perception of the world was based on old black and white photos and movies of the period when I was young.
