== ''Literally'' Older Than Television ==
This category is for works that predate the invention of television in 1928 -- {{Years or months ago|1928}}.
* ''[[The Economist]]'' magazine – {{Years or months ago|1843|09}}: It has been published continuously since it was founded in September 1843.
* The original ''Folies Bergère'' in Paris - {{Years or months ago|1869|05}}. The cabaret/music hall opened in 1869 and has run shows continuously since.
* ''Ringling Bros, Barnum & Bailey Circus'' – 146 years: As a live show, it (or its predecessors) ran 1871-2017; there were also a pair of feature films (''The Greatest Show on Earth'' in 1952 and ''The Greatest Showman'' in 2017) and a short-lived US TV series (30 episodes, ABC, 1963). The original shows pre-date the motorcar fad (which Karl Friedrich Benz started with the Benz Patent Motorcar in 1885), arriving in each community on their own special train.
