The world was black and white before colour photographs and colour TV

I used to think that the entire world was in black and white, after I saw old photos and films.

When I was a kid, I believed that the 1950s and earlier were ACTUALLY black and white, in real life, because that's what I saw on TV.

I used to believe that the world was black and white in the really old times (1950's) hence the television and old photos being colorless.

When I was little, my mom watched alot of balck and white films. I thought that the world was actually black and white back in the 20's!

After seeing old black and white photos of the family, I used to think that the world used to be in black and white. I accepted this as fact and went on my merry way for several years. I only found out that the world was always in colour when I asked my mom what year the colour came! She was so confused.

I used to believe that everything in the world was Black and White before the invention of Color television.

My mom would always watch old black and white tv shows, so I thought that in the time period of the tv shows, the whole world was black and white.

When I was little, I believed that before color television, the world was in black and white.

I used to think that color didn't exist until a couple decades ago and that is why some movies were black and white... Color did not exist yet

I used to believe that there was a time when, like old movies, life was really without color

We had plenty of black and white photos at home. Family photos or deceased uncles and grandparents.
So I used to believe that the world had no colour back then. But that it used to be in shades of gray like on the photos or in the movies.I never bothered asking how the world became coloured, until I was about 15.

When i was little i thought that the past was in black and white because all the very old shows where black and white, and that the color was invented when color tv came to existence

When I was little, I thought that in the olden days the world was in black and white, because of old films, and I thought what an amazing day it must have been when all the colour suddenly arrived!

I used to think the world was black and white. I thought black and white movies had no color because no one had invented color and everything existed in shades of gray. I was really glad they had invented color before I was born so I could eat a red apple and lay on green grass.

Chloe

Because of black and white photographs and television, I used to believe that the entire world was black and white before they invented color.

Autumn

I used to believe that the entire world was black and white, but then a rainbow exploded and the entire world was colored. I asked my mom once what living in a black and white world was like, and she laughed at me.

Jen

I used to believe that since movies and pictures were in black and white, that things from those times must have been in black and white, too. One time I asked my mom what it was like for her when the world changed to color. It took her a while to figure out what I was talking about!

Christi

When I was younger I used to watch black and white videos like the little Rascals and Abbot and Costello with my father. I thought that everything back in those days when they filmed those videos, was black and white. My tiny brain at the time would always wonder what it was like with no color in the world
