  • The First Car with AC Sold Poorly

Air conditioning was first installed in the White House in 1929, under the Hoover administration. It was a lavish upgrade to the facilities, which surely must have come across as excessive when the stock market crashed in October of that year. Before this, only outdoor air cooled the White House.
