I have “selfies” I took back in the late 1970’s when I was in Film/Photo Dept at College. Used an old Argus C3 with Rangefinder (everyone else had new Nikons).
I recall that at the time, people found them to be annoying. Or perhaps it was just me.
It even has that unusual perspective common to many a selfie.

I took my first selfie with a digital camera in 1997.
If you’re really committed to the selfie, you learn the art of portraiture, like Joseph Ducreux

When Apple announced they were going to be putting a front-facing camera on one of their early iPhones, I thought to myself, “who would ever use that?”
That’s why I don’t work in product development.
