1981 Video of a Law Office: No Computers But Lots of Cigarettes!

July 10, 2014

If you have a spare 23 minutes and 29 seconds, check out the video at Above The Law. The video documents the law firm office of Slaughter and May in December of 1981. It is an amazing display of the lack of technology. Remember that this is before VoIP, cell phones and even computers. The most hi-tech device is probably the video camera used to shoot the footage. It truly is a trip down memory lane when smoking in the office was common. You can even see a working telephone switchboard, complete with wires and headsets similar to the one Lily Tomlin used in Laugh-In.
