sights from the 50s

So, I have a few old magazines from the 1950s…..my hubby wonders why I don’t toss them, but they are a little piece of history. And good for a laugh, too.

for instance, when was the last ad you saw for a can of good ol LARD?!

or US savings bonds….how romantic

can you guess why she’s so happy? No, not the swim-cap…it’s

good ol’ Tampax!

WAY before Ipods.  This was the thing to have in your shirt pocket.

And phone booths… my daughter never saw one of these before.

a Coca-Cola ad, but she’s making martinis. Hmmm.

An oven with a removable door… how modern!

why does it look like she just sneezed on her brother’s burger?

Gee, I DO need a pink phone for the kitchen.

when was the last time you said “WHEE!” while killing weeds- clearly I must need a pink phone, some Coca-Cola martinis and a lot of savings bonds to get on that level!

I hope you enjoyed this glimpse into my magazines..more food is coming soon. I just had to escape modern life for a bit!
