Yes! Absolutely the iconographical evidence cannot be ignored, considering
the vast number of daguerrotypes and other photographic images dating from
the dawn of the lightbulb, giving us a clear picture of what the world
looked like in those days. We know that the world of the early lightbulb was
visually a world of monochrome. This is undoubtedly due to the quality of
light emitted by historical lightbulbs. It's difficult, in the world of our
own modern lightbulbs, to be able to imagine the world of the early bulb.
But to "think sepia," and not full-color, is the clear message we get from
studying the iconography surrounding HIP lightbulb-changing.

I absolutely agree David, the world of early bulb was a Sepia world. But I
see that you mention "lightbulb". I believe the correct is "light bulb"!!!
