When Electricity Was New and Scary, People Needed Guidelines on How to Be Safe

historical-nonfiction:

Here are some great safety posters, from what is today the Czech Republic, circa 1920s and 1930s

“Don’t Use A Whip Near Electric Lines”

“If the power isn’t off don’t poke the outlet!”

“Warning! Don’t wipe electric devices with a wet cloth!”

“Don’t touch electric devices while taking a bath!”

“Don’t touch heaters while operating a vacuum!”

And my personal favorite: “Fixing it yourself will cause more harm; call a professional and don’t worry.”
