the world was black and white then

Lori Hale Williams

From Calvin and Hobbes:

Calvin:
How come old photographs are always black and white? Didn't they have color film back then?

Calvin's Dad:
Sure they did. In fact, those old photographs are in color. It's just that the world was black and white then. The world didn't turn color until sometime in the 1930s, and it was pretty grainy color for a while, too.
