    The tunic and shorts are what was called, hot pants, and were popular in the early 1970's...my grad dress was a long, purple and white floor length tunic, open from the waist and beneath them were the purple hot pants. I rocked the grad class of 1972. The pictures are priceless.

      Yep! I was a year younger than you and I was a very quiet person, but I loved hot pants outfits like that. I was also a fan of the midi skirts that had a zipper up the front that started just below the knee and you unzipped it as far as you felt comfortable! I had a couple that I wore with tall boots and turtlenecks with long pendants or scarves at the neck. Ah, high school memories! Haha!

    We have a hatch back . A sonic Chevy. A small car . Went overboard at a secondhand shop with furniture and all sorts. The shop people kindly carried it all to the car and with jaws dropped they disbelievingly watched as my husband lowered the back seats and put half a houseful of furniture inside . The same thing happened at the condo we live in . People stared in astonishment as more and more and more stuff emerged from the small car .

    In the Sixties, I was a young boy on a small farm in central Illinois. We had a Pepsi thermometer mounted on a shed very similar to the one in the video, except it was white with blue lettering. The reason I remember it so well is because of my many visits to a lilac bush near that shed from which I would cut switches for use by my mom on me. I became expert at switches (to thin versus to thick), and reading a thermometer.

    Pursuing mystery boxes is one of the reasons, I think, many of us keep coming back - oh, what's he going to find? Oh, I know that piece - I had one as kid; or my dad or granddad had something like that. The adventure in memory is a trip (usually) worth taking. And one of the other BIG reasons is your oft magnanimous penchant for fair-play, paying back, and paying forward. So, in that every-man-logic, you've earned the abundance you and your family have been able to receive.

    It looks like the Lindbergh picture was an insert in the _Philadelphia Bulletin._ I grew up in Philly and remember the _Bulletin_ before they went out of business in 1982. In the 1970s, I worked in the plant where we printed the magazine insert for the _Bulletin._ There are a few of these out there, signed, but without the newspaper logo, so I suspect the signature was printed with the rest of the picture. In fact, there's an identical one at Worthpoint with the same inscription, so it was clearly signed in the plate.

      Simple. New and improved means CHEAPER TO MAKE and more profit. Like taking out cane sugar and inserting high fructose corn syrup during the sugar shortage in the late sixties or early seventies. If they get away with it, they keep doing it.

    They were Sizzler sets. A micro mini dress with matching bottoms because the tops were too short! I loved mine, I didn’t weigh 100# yet. Glad I got away with wearing them when I could. 😂

      Yes! That’s what we called them in the early 70s. My dad lost his mind, mom showed him the shorts that went underneath the top.

      I never heard them called that! That’s interesting - are you in the US? Where I lived, the shorts were the point. They were called hot pants and the tops were made to come down to the bottom hem of the shorts or longer with a slit up the front to show off the shorts. I can see the relationship between hot pants and sizzler sets as names, though.

    • @maryriha
      @maryriha 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Yes, I lived in the Midwest but I couldn’t remember what we called them so I asked google for images where they were labeled Sizzlers. Yep, that’s what we called them. They were mostly silky double knit.

    I’m old enough to remember when you had have a can opener to open soda and beer cans. Then the pop top came out in the 60’s that didn’t last long people would open their beverage an toss the ring pull. Then Coors beer came out with a button method on top of the can they were hard to open those didn’t last long either. I don’t know how many chains I had using the pull tabs of the pop tops. You could get a pretty nasty cut if you stepped on one. Then it evolved into what we have today..
