1910’s-era movie theater etiquette Public Service Announcements (via 1,2)
Most early movie theaters had only one projector so “etiquette slides” were used to divert the audience while reels were being changed. These glass slides often featured lighthearted instructions for proper behavior while viewing a film.

If this site is correct in its calculations considering inflation rates over the decades, I found out that…
$100 in 1900 is equivalent to about $9,481 in 2011.
$100 in 1910 is equivalent to about $8,782 in 2011.
$100 in 1920 is equivalent to about $3,806 in 2011.
$100 in 1930 is equivalent to about $4,681 in 2011.
$100 in 1940 is equivalent to about $4,814 in 2011.
$100 in 1950 is equivalent to about $2,608 in 2011.
$100 in 1960 is equivalent to about $1,717 in 2011.
It’s pretty interesting to look at the change over time! Can you believe how much prices have adjusted?
