What was it going to be like in 1999?

This is a short video produced in the 1960’s to show what life might be like in 1999. They got a lot of things right: Home shopping and e-mail (“electronic correspondence machine”). It’s interesting to see the husband-wife stereotypes perpetuated here. Wife does the shopping, husband pays the bills. Also, do any kids play like that any more? Mine sure don’t.
