History repeats itself, or does it? By looking at advertisemnets from lightng manufacturers of the past, both consumers and designers can have a better understanding of how lighting has changed today and how the patterens are still the same. Take a look at these magazine and newspaper advertisements from the good ol’ days to find out how light bulb designs have evolved into what they are today. Almost like a glimpse at “Mad Men” gone lighting.
