History Nerd: The First Electric Illuminated Billboard

August 5, 2015

If you love learning about the history of design and advertising like I do then you'll dig this episode from The Memory Palace podcast about the first ever Electric Illuminate Billboard. This 1892 billboard was located on the wall of the NYC Cumberland Hotel. The part of the episode where Nate DiMeo describes people seeing it for the first time gave me full on goose bumps.

Princess Diana was for realz a style icon. The suit, the snake broach ❤️❤️❤️.
Finally got to take my #vegan desert boots from @clarksoriginals  for a spin! Very comfy, however since they are mens they fit differently than women’s shoes.
