The above photo is from Popular Science Monthly, Vol. 124, No. 6, June 1934, p. 35. This is an early depiction of the ascent of man, and it is taken from the Peabody Museum of Natural History, at Yale University. It was featured in a section of the magazine that reports on new Science news, so it must have been fairly recently installed. The succession is gibbon, orangutan, chimpanzee, gorilla and human.
Recently, I saw the sign below on 23rd. St., NYC, and it was an ad for some online food ordering company. I thought it was clever in depicting technological tool use, and how we become dependent on the increasing size of our tools, thus returning us to our protohuman stature?
