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

I used to believe that the entire pre-1970s world was in black and white, and that color in the world was invented around the same time as color TVs.

When I was little (about 6) I liked to look at the pictures of my parents that were in black and white. One day I asked my dad, "When you were little, was the world in black and white?" Obviously he told me the truth, but before then,(for about a year) that's what I thought.

I used to think that New York was only black and white, but every other place had colors because i was watching a movie one time about New York and it was only in black and white so I thought that it was really oonly black and white.....

When I was about six years old, I loved watching black-and-white t.v. shows. But because I watched them, I thought that life when there was only black and white t.v. was actualy black and white!

until the 60's- the whole world was black and white, and it got colorful because of the gas that came out from cars and factories

After watching black and white movies and looking at black and white pictures from my parents' childhoods, i thought that at some point in the past, the world was black and white.

having watched a bunch of black and white movies,and seen a bunch of black and white pictures,whitch were obviously old.I concluded that in the old days every thing was only black and white,and those films and pictures were made before color was invented. Color was invented somewhere in the 70's

I used to think that because all the old movies were in black and white, that everything back then was.

I used to believe that people only saw in black and white until the 1950's because that's when color came to television.

I used to think that when my parents were younger the world was in black and white. I got this idea from looking at pictures of my parents that was all in black and white. So I thought previously it was all black and white and only now is the world in color.
