The Year 2000, As Of The Year 1900

According to the Ladies' Home Journal... which as the BBC noted (thanks to SteveD) did pretty well...

And German chocolate makers... which didn't but were charming...

And I always liked this Punch satire of Edison's endless stream of inventions. How wrongfooted would a group of travellers be, stepping into the National Gallery in 1879 and seeing visitors flying up to get a better look at the Turners?
