Afraid of heights? This vintage home feature is not for you!

By
Real Estate Agent with Keller Williams Greenville Upstate

 

Imagine showing a big city condominium with one of these hanging out of the window! If your baby wasn't getting enough fresh air in the early part of the 20th century, one of these window cages did the trick. Thankfully this trendy home feature was short lived! I wonder if the little guy pictured here remembers hanging off this high rise?


Can you remember any odd home features that would cause a stir today?

Bill Kennedy These are great photos of English insanity. Those English are just nuts. No wonder the likes of Monty Python and Benny Hill were English!

That was how I kept my food cold in college w/o a refrigerator. Buy a metal file case hang a cord outside of the window. Kept the key so rats do not get to them.

Bill, you just have to question the thought process that some folks are stuck with!
