Telegram by Rex Whistler, 1936
Extinct:
"Can we bring back: scythes, brogues, mourning,
silence, housewives, telegrams, spring cleaning,
snow in January instead of at lambing time, nurses
in uniform, muffins, the 1662 prayer book, pinafores
for little boys, Ethel Merman and Elvis Presley?"
—Deborah Devonshire
