While it’s true that most of the things we have now are very technologically impressive, there is just something downright cool about how stuff was made in the past. All those design tendencies that never took off, wood and leather. It can be fun to appreciate the sensibilities of designers from back in the day.
The “Little Slice of Vintage Life” Facebook group is dedicated to sharing pictures of cool, old things. We also got in touch with the page's creator and admin to learn more. So get comfortable as you scroll through, upvote your favorites, dust off a typewriter and be sure to add your own thoughts to the comments below.
