- Women's Oxfords, 1900-1922 - Low-cut shoes that lace up the front became fashionable in the United States in the late 1800s.

- Stand-Off Insulator, circa 1915 - Insulators--made of poor electrical conductors such as glass, ceramic, plastic, or composite materials--help make electric power and communication transmission lines safe. They isolate wires from utility poles, transmission towers, and buildings--structures that are made of conductive materials that could cause signal degradation, power loss, fire, or pose a shock hazard if the lines touched them.
