Remember Kids, Electricity Will Kill You 1926 T-Shirt

Reddy Kilowatt is a fictional character that acted as spokesman for electricity generation in the United States for over 70 years. He is drawn as a stick figure whose body, limbs, and hair are made of stylized lightning-bolts and whose bulbous head has a light bulb for a nose and wall outlets for ears. His primary purpose was to put a friendly face on the newfangled electrical systems that were commonplace in the cities in the 1920s, but rural areas remained chronically underserved as people had many misconceptions about electricity. This one is kind of funny, seeing how Reddy Kilowatt’s messaging was all about how safe electricity was, but then turns around and tells kids that he will kill them.
