Marilyn Monroe & Queen Elizabeth’s Meeting + A Dangerous Car Seat?

In 1956, two of the most famous women in history—Marilyn Monroe and Queen Elizabeth II—met for the first time at a London film premiere. Both were 30 years old, yet they came from two completely different worlds. This rare photo captures their legendary handshake.

Meanwhile, in 1933, an early child "safety" seat was introduced—not to protect kids, but simply to keep them from moving around the car. There were no crash tests, no harnesses, and barely any security.

A fascinating look back at history, innovation, and how far we’ve come.
