German chocolate brand Hildebrand’s, just in time for the turn of the 20th century, commissioned postcards that are future predictions illustrations of 2000. Starting in January 1900, they placed a card in each box of chocolate with a fantastical prediction of what the future would hold. People always wondered and made predictions about the future. Here are Hildebrand’s predictions and there are some close predictions to present.
