This Is What Today's Favorites First Looked Like

Think of those exciting days when many of our favorite objects made their early appearances in our lives: TVs, phones, computers, toys and many others. Do you think all the modern changes have been improvements? Have the newer models lost some of their charm? Why don't you join me on this trip down memory lane?
