The Weird Beauty Contest
Before the era of online games and computers, people used to participate in these weird beauty contest. This picture is the one that happened in Cliftonville, USA.
Skin Tanner
While now people are going crazy over getting fair skin, earlier people used to get tanned using a skin tanner!

Yes, this is a water-based breast massager. I can't even believe something like this would exist in the past.
Hair Straightner
It was done using an iron! Weird!
Stockings
Women used to draw stockings on their legs back in 1941. Interestingly, Nylon became one of the first consumer goods during those days.

Basically advertising for cocaine, which is now an illegal drug and people can actually get arrested for consuming it!

The numbered gloves that used to help while teaching blind typing on a typewriter in USA, 1961.
Omelette of 7200 eggs
Okay, so there is a record of making an omelette from 7,200 eggs in USA, 1931. Wondering what's weird? Well, the people actually skated on the surface of the giant frying pan to spread the oil properly.
