The Stroller Moms Of Yesteryear!

oo










Do you suppose, dear reader, there was a great "stroller mom" debate in our fair borough of Brooklyn in days past?
Were there conflicts between the "have children," and the "have none"? Did people object to the stroller set blocking sidewalks with their double wides? Were there tales of mothers rolling over feet or blocking deli aisles? And did they say pretty please and thanks when doors were held open?

Oh, how I wish I knew...
Because you see, the strollers were big as far back as back when. And block the sidewalk they did, of that I am sure. Just look at the photos and you will see: the double wide was a monster the same as today.

Which makes me wonder in all this debate, why the little stroller below, (there, you see?) did not become the standard of back then and today.

Katia, don't take this as an insult but only in Germany! That looks painful!

I know...it looks so incredibly uncomfortable, but it doesn't take up any space. German engineering at its best.
