Two Mistakes in This 1960s Waiting Room

The Answer

The correct answer is: The two mistakes are the self-adhesive privacy tab on the clipboard and the disposable mask ear-loop shape near the magazines..

Here is why

  1. The vinyl chairs, ashtray, magazines, clipboard, and wall notices fit the older waiting room.
  2. Inspect the clipboard edge and the loose fabric-like line beside the magazine stack.
  3. A sticky privacy tab and a modern mask ear loop are newer hospital details.

Why people miss it

Waiting rooms are full of paper, clips, straps, and small personal items. The two wrong details do not look dramatic enough to demand attention.
