"je vois le futur": 1910 sees 2000

These are few of a collection of prints I found on the website for the National Library of France (BnF), depicting the year 2000. They were actually created in 1910 and are attributed to Villemard, and are thought to have been distributed as novelty postcards with consumable goods. I thought I would share them for their sheer delightful nature, many of the prints in concept are scarily close to what we do actually have today. I just wish that men's fashion of today was closer to what was envisioned in these...
