In an email, a friend sent me a link to a video of 1950s nostalgia. What killed me, of course, was how well I actually remembered everything portrayed in the video -- the music, the cars, the (ahem) fashions. Talk about feeling old -- even though I was just a little girl in the Fifties, mind you!
Here's that link:
Take Me Back to the Fifties
After watching the video, I clicked through to the website's home page, where I discovered even more nostalgia inducers.
This video covers my high school and college years:
Take Me Back to the Sixties
And while we are at it, how about a featurette on The Cars We Drove in the 50s & 60s.
By the way, the first car I got to drive regularly was my mother's 1958 Ford Fairline 500, like the one in the photo at the top of this page -- but without the fender skirts. (Mom would never have had a car with fender skirts!)
