    I still prefer printed maps... miss typing on a real typewriter ( I liked the feel of actually typing on the keyboard). Miss drive-in theaters... couldn't do it today. My hybrid won't idle more than 20min at a time. Wouldn't be able to hear the movie through the car radio as it would turn off every 20min. I didn't mind the speakers you'd hang on the window... part of the charm of the drive-in. I miss the letters from my grandmother with her beautiful handwriting. I love looking at them. Not as memorable if emailed. Liked going to the soda fountain shop as a kid. Wish they were still there today... too few around now. Remember pasting the green stamps into the books... and that unforgettable flavor from licking the stamps. Pogo sticks were such fun!
    Thanks for the memories ❤

    Bored? Choose an encyclopedia and just thumb through it.

    Green stamps: There were several companies that did this; some were mail order, some also had retail stores. Of course, there were also box tops (usually on cereal. Rocky and Bullwinkle did a whole series of cartoons on the foreign spies trying to wreck American economy with counterfeit box tops) and coupons on boxes. Knock-down furniture was a common redemption; there was even a term in the 1920's to 1970's called Borax furniture--cheap way to furnish your home by buying 20 Mule Team Borax detergent. How about hula hoops and lawn darts?

    In the 60s most adults grew up during the great depression, and they were not wasteful.
    Most families had one motor vehicle for the whole family.
    Also one TV, if the had one, one telephone, if they had one.
    Kids played outside, with other kids, all day long.
    Toys were simple and required imagination.
    There were a lot of factories in the US, and most Americans worked in factories.
    Most stores were owner operated, and corporate stores were not as common.
    People dressed up when they went some where, everywhere.
    About 40 percent of people were under 21. Baby boomers.
    Drink cans had flat tops the a punch can opener was used. 2 holes were punched, 1 for our and 1 to drink from. In the latest 60s pull off tabs came out. Not all were thrown on the ground, some were made into chains or necklaces and were hung over the rear view mirror.

    0:17 at least with my old typewriter I wasn't forced to buy over-priced ink every other week.

    7:13 "Some even had these special gadgets called GPS devices just for navigating...." Not in the 60s they didn't.

    Tv still turned off in the early 1980s. Certain channels at least.

    Babies loved instead of killed in the hundreds of thousands.

    Whereas in the current brave new world, we have AI-written "content" like this, voiced by a machine. Couldn't an actual human have fact-checked this nonsense? It's riddled with inaccuracies.
