20 Things from the 1960s, Kids Today Will Never Understand! 

I was born in 1965. I recall the rotary phone, milk man and the T.V. test pattern. I also recall when the broadcast day ended with the Star Spangled Banner. On all 6 channels!

I was born in 1953 and remember all these. We are the last generation that made the transition from manual to technology. What a ride

This is groovy, I was born in 1961. I have so many wonderful memories of my childhood in those times. Best times for kids to grow up in, the music was the best and the movies were just a good. I still listen to 50s and 60s music and watch b/w movies as well from the same eras. No computers and we played outside all day still the streetlights went out. I would go back in time if I could.

I remember going to the drive in with older kids who could drive. We drove in the exit with one or two in the trunk and never got caught. Then there were some who in their haste to leave at the end of the movie, forgot to take the speaker out and hang it on the pedestal. I remember all the things we did as kids that no one does anymore. It was an exciting life in 1950 in a little town.

Im 70 and the 60s were a great time to grow up. I met the girl I would eventually marry in 7th grade in 1965. I remember the Cuban crisis and where I was when I found out President Kennedy was shot dead. I remember watching the Beatles on Ed Sullivan and my Dad laughing at them. My neighbor was a Marine that got killed in Vietnam in 1967. I remember getting my license in 1969. I also watched the moon landing on TV when it happened.A friend of mine tried to talk me into going to Woodstock as it was only a couple hour drive. My wife and I remember drive ins ❤️ . She is sitting next to me now.

'64 baby here and I remember some things, especially into the early 70's. I still stand by the fact that life was so much easier then. If today's kids would just unplug and listen to stories of the wiser generations, they might be surprised. Thank you! A great Saturday morning it has been thus far!

There will never again be a decade like the 1960's. The first full decade I lived through.

Digital age children shall never know the sheer pleasure - in a fit of raging fury - of slamming the receiver down on a rotary-dial telephone.

The 1950's and 1960's were a wonderful time to be a child. We played outside for hours doing pool time in the summer and riding our Schwinn bikes all over the neighborhood. We got dirty, sweaty, and we got chigger bites. But I got to tell you younger people it was paradise back then to be a child. Now all the kids do is stay inside playing those awful computer games where people are shot, stabbed or run over by cars. If the brats do come outside and go up to stop signs and whack them with sticks!!!! There is no pretending or going into characters like being a cowboy or a pirate. They just come out and start schreeking like animals. It sad watching the undoing of childhood.

In was born in 1950 so I grew up in the 60's. I went from 5th grade to college. I remember our kiddie matinee at the local theater on Saturday afternoons. We saw a double feature, cartoons, either a 3 Stooges or Laurel & Hardy short and coming attractions for 25 cents. When I got my drivers license in 1966 gas was 25 cents a gallon and they even washed your window, checked the oil & water and tire pressure FOR FREE!! At least for us here in Los Angeles County the drop & cover policy pretty much ended in the late 50's, but the air raid sirens went off on every 4th Friday on the month at 9:00 AM for 5 minutes to make sure they were working. It was nerve racking. I never could understand how hiding under your desk was going to save you from being vaporized. In SoCal we had 7 TV stations (CBS, NBC, ABC plus 4 local stations). I remember the Cuban Missile Cries, the first men into space (Shepard & Glenn), The Kennedy Assassination, MLK and Robert Kennedy assassinations and the first men on the Moon. A lot happened. No mater how bad it all sounded it was a lot better growing back then now.

Yes, it was great! Never had a party lined phone. We were able to talk for hours and never got tired. Bikes were a necessity, as was fast food, Drive-Ins, transistor radios, and plenty of talk shows to listen in on. Our freedom was unlimited and we enjoyed every minute of it. Yes, the sixties were great times!

I was born in 1985 We had rotary phones and I still own it and it still works. The color is green just like in the video We had Drive ins We had duck and cover and had the second cold war We used type writers and used white out We didn't have a milkman but TV still showed it often We had portable radios and even made DIY radios with copper wire in high school in 2002. The please stand by on TV would be shown on nick at night. My first tv as a child was black and white We had film cameras. The encyclopedia was pitched to me growing up on tv and salesman. We even used it in High School in 2001. I use it currently to hold up my brake calipers while working on my car. The vinyl disk we had that in 1980's and I still have my parents record player. We don't have full service gas station The soda fountain while we didn't have that it was known and became more of gmick to bring people into the store and we still have 1 location today. Gogo boots and mini skirts. We had that. Penny candy. We had that. Manual windows. I had that in my 1981, 1990, and even 2020 Nissan Versa had manual windows.

I had go-go boots and short skirts. Wore 'em, too. Thought I was the cat's meow

I remember the neighbors got the first color tv in the mid 60s.Not all shows were broadcast in full living color.

I learned to spell ENCYCLOPEDIA by watching the Mickey Mouse Club tv show. Jimeny Cricket hosted the segment on Mickey Mouse

I was born in 1960 and I totally remember how I didn't want it to change to 1970. The sixties was all I knew since I was born in the sixties and the fact that I was reminded every time I had to date my work at school. The 1970s seemed odd. The sixties really was a special time.

I grew up in the D.C. area in the 50's and 60's. In addition to Thompson's Honor dairy delivering we had Rice's bakery deliver baked goods. Home delivered doughnuts! Also had a party line with a friend of ours.

Car engines did not hum in drive-in theaters. Cars were parked with their engines turned off beside poles to which speakers were attached. The driver would take the spaker off the pole and hang it on the car window, rolling up the window to hold it in place inside the car. That's how viewers heard the movies; the theater didn't have to blare the soundtrack at everyone. And they did have concession stands, so no one had to sneak in food unless they thought the theater prices were too high.

1967 here, my sister was a 65’ girl, lol. What a great memory, thanks for sharing.

I learned to type on a manual typewriter. We used to type to The Lone Ranger and later on at college Spanish Flea. My typing teacher Mrs Keys (!) said I would never make a secretary but I am nearly 70 and still doing secretarial work. It was a very good way of learning accurate typing.

My boyfriend(soon to be husband) had a record player in his '60 bug eyed Sprite. It played 45s. We went to the drive-in every Wed. night when the pictures changed. You got two movies plus cartoons for $1.50 per car.😅

There's a drive in near my grandparent's home, it uses the radio to have sound as well as speakers, its really interesting how they kept it for so long (they even use some of the older candy and snacks for the drive in)

"The world to me seems so much colder, all the children seem much older than they did yesterday They learn so fast, they learn so hard, too soon they're gone from the backyard before they've had time to play I miss yesterday"

Drive ins were the best. That little brown bags filled with penny candy.

No actual transistor radios were shown, during the transistor radio discussion. In my school, in suburban Washington DC ( Maryland side), we didn't duck and cover under our desks. We walked single file into the hallways, sat with our backs against the wall, and tucked our heads, between our knees. Easier to recover our scorched remains, after the attack, I guess! Also, vacuum cleaners and Encyclopedias, were sold by travelling salesmen, driving business coupes. 😊

We had a rotary phone and a party line. It was too short rings, or one long ring. And I remember when we got our color TV in 1960. I was born in ‘54. I had a transistor radio and a little record player that played 45s. And I remember going to the drive-in theater, and we had an A&W drive-in downtown. And we had the milkman come every week and the bread man would come too. The whole side of his truck would open up and he had all kinds of breads and pastries, It was cool. Even today I have two rotary phones, one from the ‘30s and one from the ‘40s and they both still work! And I have my grandmother’s sewing machine that was made in 1936, It’s a Singer Featherweight. I made all my school clothes on that machine. And today I own a 1956 Ford F-100 truck that I’ve had for almost 20 years. And it has manual steering, manual brakes, manual choke, and it does not have power windows or power door locks. It is a blast to drive!

The milkman brought more than milk. You could get cottage cheese, sour cream and even orange juice. Of course, this was in bigger areas.

Remember going to a shopping center and seeing a car whose lights had inadvertantly been left on? What did we do? Well, we just opened the unlocked door and turned them off for the driver we didn't even know.

I was a teenager in the 60s, our first TV was a black and white but it was also coin operated and back then you had to have a license to access TV and radio broadcasts. Back then things were done face to face, kids gathered in front of their houses to share their newest toys and latest comics. Cheers.

We had cool cars, great music and America for the most part was still sane. Glad I got to see all of the 60s and 2nd half of the 50s. Unlike today it was a great time to be a kid. No drive by shootings, carjackings, smash and grabs and just over all foul behavior passed off as normal activity like today. Back when America made its own stuff and was sold at reasonable prices. Today all our sh!t is imported and doesn't last. A refridge today may last you 10 or 15 years if you are lucky. When we sold our childhood home that was built in 1949, it had the same some stove and refridge that all worked perfectly at about 55 years of use!

I was born in 1952 and remember all of it and would give anything to bring it all back.!!!

Remember it well I was born in 1958, it was a much better time we even had honesty and LAW AND ORDER. I miss those days.

The test pattern was a good idea. It let people know their TV was working. Most local stations only showed it for a few minutes and then they shut it all down. KDKA left theirs up all night. I sleep with my TV on now days. I used to sleep with the radio playing but with TV that never turns off, it's easier to just let the TV play. It isn't even very expensive anymore. New TVs don't use much electricity.

I have been on this earth 7 decades, plus 4 yrs!!! Sen a lot, heard a lot!!!❤❤

Party lines were almost exclusive to the non-Bell System aka "Independent" phone companies The other 85% had never heard of them I didn't cover no duck! Test patterns were typically 20 to 30 minutes before sign on in the morning. A lot of stations did not use them after sign-off they would just throw the switch and you would get the white noise

My maternal grandparents had yellow kitchen appliances, a yellow rotary phone, a color tv where you had to get up to turn it on, or change the channel. 1960s/1970s/80s

1963, 3rd Grade. The teacher was called out into the hall by another teacher. She came back in bawling her eyes out and informed us that JFK... - just shed a tear, after 50 years! "speed dial" was forcing the dial back around - 9s and zeros were excruciating! By 4th grade I had read all of the Hardy Boys books and knew my way around a dictionary. 'Reincarnation' (!), what a joy to find there was actually a word for my private belief. Has anyone else out there ever dried out a banana skin in the oven and smoked it? Get up early, deliver papers, go to school, come home to drop off books and grab a pole, take the bus out to the reservoir, hide in the bushes (illegal to fish) catch some Bluegill or Perch, take the bus back, clean and cook the fish, have mom's dinner - beef liver or beef kidney, cooked from scratch (we were poor but could afford organ meat) watch The Wild, Wild West on a 6 inch x 8 inch screen or read a book, go to bed. That was1965, for me.

1974 we lived in a small town in Nebraska and the party line still existed! If you couldn't afford a full phone bill you'd be assigned to a "party line" which means you shared your phone line with others. If someone was calling your house, your phone would have a series of rings .. in sharing your line.. you were at the mercy of whomever else was on their phone..To you all who've never experienced a rotary dial telephone.. here's what we used to do.. the place where you put the phone handle (receiver) down had these little buttons called.."dip switches".. As a teenager wanting to use the phone and the other person who shared your phone line wouldn't get off.. well.. you learned how to slowly lift the receiver, place your finger on the dip switch and..slowly release it... then... You're now privy to whomsoever is hogging the phone!!😮😮 Omgggg... it was sooo awesome!! 😅😅

Remember when a hand shake and your word meant everything

I STILL have my encyclopedias(Britannica)!!! I can also remember the last days of the Milk man & penny candy in the 70s!!!! I also remember the comeback of the Party line, Diana Ross & Paul McCartney in the 80s!!!! Back in the day , there were trends that would return after 20 or 30 years!!! Today it seems that technology has made that obsolete!!! Yet , I noticed that some of men's hairstyles of the 1950s & 60s are now coming back!!!🤔🤔🤔

I remember black and white tv,[b&wtv] we got our first colour set in about 1973 or 74, when I was 15/16. Here in Britain limited colour broadcasting began in 1967 and was expanded in around 1970, but only the rich could afford colour, IDK how my parents managed to afford it when they did, although it was becoming more common then. We only had 3 tv channels at the time, BBC1, BBC2 and ITV. The ITV channel.was regional so some could pick up 2 or more if you lived near a regional boundary. We did not get a fourth channel until 1982. Another thing I remember is dried meals [Vesta], did you used to have similar over in America as well? Film cameras were the norm until the late 1990s/early 2000s, I switched from film to digital in Dec 2005. Like tv, most photographic film was black and white, the switch to colour was in about the late 60s/early 70s. You could also buy colour 'slide' film, these produced translucent pictures which were viewed by projection on a screen, although hand held viewers could also be bought. For home movies we had 8mm cine film,available in both b&w or colour, eachy film lasted only a few minutes and was silent [it is possible that some may have existed with sound, but I cannot remember them. We also had the milkman, 7 days a week. Some areas had a baker's delivery, and the coalman would also visit.I do not remember the frequency of bakery or coal deliveries. However, the modern equivalent is the supermarket delivery, most of our major supermarkets have those, order online, and have a delivery either the next day some have same-day slots]. How frustrating it is if some of the items required are advertised on the website as 'available' only to be told when you get the confirmation email that they are 'out of stock'. I also remember rotary phones, they would be useless now, as you usually have to go through several 'menus' and press numerous buttons before getting to a human. However it is still remembered in our language we still 'dial a number'. Another linguistic relic is to 'pull the chain' meaning to flush the toilet . Does the American English also have these linguistic relics or are they exclusive to GB English?

My mother would serve TV dinners to me, my brother, and herself when my father was out of town for the week, but they were never served when my father was home for dinner.

I remember how fun it was to take our little chairs from our table & chair set. We loaded up in our station wagon and mom and dad would line our chairs up in front of the car. We would go down front to play at the playground while daddy went to get popcorn. I also remember grabbing my little chair and momma had her big chair and we worked out w Jack Lalane. That joy for exercise has stuck with me my whole life🧍🏼‍♀️🏃‍♀️‍➡️ 11:52

03:50 Again....dude there was No fear in these Duck and cover drills!! It was fun! Who here had fear doing these drills?

Graduated high school in 1965. Test patterns were not broadcast all night in my town. It was used by TV stations to setup the analog signal. I never used sticky notes to mark my place in an encyclopedia because they didn't come out until the mid 70's.

Does anyone remember something on TV called "Nigh Owl?" It was a program that went from midnight to 5 am or something like that and had pages of text on the screen. There was news, advertisements and sometimes even puzzles and games by "The Trickster." Remember?

These things kept us busy. Life wasn't so horrible.

Drive ins nowadays would be not comfortable with new car seats

Party lines in telephone service were mainly in less populated rural areas. I was born in 1957 and grew up in suburbia. My family never had a party line, and I never knew anyone who had one.

The commercials for the Drive-In's snack bar were the best.

I wish we could go back to this simpler time. Before all the technology destroyed the family...of a Mom and Dad and boys and girls...sharing daily experiences at the table. Think "Leave It To Beaver!"

Kids today will NEVER understand!! The dairy fairy, a photo wizard 🧙‍♂️ hahaha 😂👍 that was funny!!

The old standard rotary dial telephones were built like a tank. Today if you drop your smartphone you have to buy a new phone. ☎️ 🤣

I remember all of those, especially that boring Indian movie (a TV test pattern).

We still go to the drive-in

In the UK "Go-Go boots" were "Kinky Boots".

The drive in theatres I went to (with my family) had no way to tune in. They had metal posts that you'd pull up next to and grab a lunch box sized speaker that you had to mount on any side window that had a crank.

No sticky notes with the encyclopaedia. Post-Its were invented in 1977

I remember it being the Malt that was the prefered, not milk shake. You would say lets go to the Malt shop, not lets go to the milkshake shop. Loved that malt taste. Don't remember what year it was I got a transistor radio as a gift from my grandmother for Christmas, I didn't know what it was, never heard of or seen one, I was probably around 10 yrs old, it was the year "Judy in Disguise" was the hit whatever year that was but finding that a radio you could take with you was awesome and it even came with an ear phone you could plug in and nobody but you could hear it. Wished they also introduced alkaline batteries back then to go with it. Batteries didn't last to long back then. No doubt a trip to the pharmacy to get a bag of penny candy as if you just found candy land and trying to decide what candy to choose. 15cents if you had it could buy a lot of candy. Loved those candies that looked like an ice cream cone.

I grew up in a very rural area with party line phones. (Our ring was "two longs" ). Until the 1980s when we got tired of the neighbour's phone calls ringing all the time so we paid extra to get a private line when it was available. We didn't need milk delivery at home: we went to the barn daily to milk our own cows, common in rural 60s, we kept a cow well into the 80s.

We should also mention that the encyclopedia was a carefully researched, edited and carefully assembled work and you could depend on getting "facts" from it. Not like today's world of any Joe Blow from Kalamazoo billing himself as an expert and spouting garbage.

I remember watching the movie Woodstock at the Highway Drive-in east of the Airport on U.S.1 in Ft. Lauderdale. If you saw that area now, you would have never thought a drive-in would have ever been there.

Correction!!!! Where did you get the idea typewriters had no backspace key??? You're right about the erasing tape, though. Many also had half-line vertical and/or horizontal spacing, all had a way to set tabs and clear tabs, and some would have a button to clear multiple tabs. All had a way to set and release margins, and don't forget the paper bale that would keep the paper in place, helping to keep print clear and not develop a shadow.

Because everybody has to go to the save encyclopedia for source material, everyone's report was about the same. Except for bonus points for those with nice handwriting 😂

I remember rotary dials, in LA you could drive your teen aged sister crazy by dialing the numbers 991199 (which I wouldn't do today), and wait for a busy signal then hang up the receiver and the phone would ring having your sister run like a gazelle to answer it , gosh it sure was fun!!!!!!!!

There was always at least one house in most neighborhoods that had a set of encyclopedias. Most people allowed the neighborhood kids use them for school work.

From ft Lauderdale and went to school in the 60s and when the Cuban missile crisis happened we spent as much time under our desks as we did actually working and the beach was closed Thinking back I'm not sure that hiding under the desk would have been much help 😅

I recall an old wooden phone on the wall, I was like 5 in 1955

The saddest part of my childhood is that miniskirts and go-go boots went out of style about a year before I became old enough to realize how awesome they were.

Lost it at the drive-in bit. I'm in the UK. No such thing as drive-ins , so can't relate. Weather never good enough anyways....

Bootifull, bootifull!

I remember party lines....or for our family it was Ms. Coulter always picking up and being nosy...

My wife (at the time) and I saw the first "Airplane" movie at a drive-in theater, and it was a neat-o experience. (Now, because we were married, no need for the move to the back seat....)

At 15:39 that is Olivia Newton-John (Toomorrow)❤❤

I was born in 1958, Dwight D Eisenhower was president, my brothers and I lived with our grandparents, we used to listen to the old lady's gossip on the party line, then tell grandma what they had said and about who they were talking about, it was like being little spies lol. There's still a few working drive-in's around, there's one in Santee, California, one in El Cajon, California, one around the Columbia, Missouri area, one in between Jeffersonville Indiana and Evansville Indiana. I still don't understand what good getting under our desks and cover our heads with our hands did. We still have a rotary phone, it's an old fashion gold phone. Growing up in the 60's and 70's was fun, at least for us kids anyway.

party phones were from the 50s. I don't ever remember the duck and cover drills as terrifying. I don't think anyone did, we really had no comprehension about what it could really do... and oh I do miss my old typewriter. I think this is a bit overstated, frankly. No miracles, this stuff just was. Oh, and the test patterns died in the 50s. Get it right.

At gas stations, you didn't just roll up. You rode over the chord that went, "Ding Ding" How about the one day a month when the guy would enter your basement and yell, "Gasman!" The neighborhood dogs would freak out that day. Speaking of days, at 1 p.m. every Monday, the downtown air raid siren went off. When I was young and naughty, I worked where people could drop off their film for processing. It took a few days for the pictures to come back. Naturally, my coworkers and I would thumb through the customers' photos and have some laughs.

I don't know if it it was common, but I remember reciting the Lord'a pray at the being of class each in the morning regardless of your religion.

I was born in 63 and lived in New Jersey. The gas station gave bubble gum, candy and sometime toys. A penny would get a handful of gum or candy from bubblegum machines. Those cool rides, sometimes a car, helicopter, horse, bat mobile or a boat found in front of grocery stores. Beatlemania. in the car - AM push button radio and EVERY radio station is playing a beetle song. First man on the moon - nice 6 birthday present for me. really they were halfway to the moon. The cars - Supper sport, convertibles, station wagons and the colors they came in... any color one wanted. Most people were thin, and the clothes girls were was really good. S&H green stamps Sears Christmas catalog. Seeing a transistor radio for the first time. Playing outside, with other neighborhood kids, playing all day. Knowing EVERYONE in the neighborhood. Wind up clocks and watches. Some glowed in the dark, ALL THE TIME. Had radioactive and would glow till the phosphor burnt out. in grocery stores, the "Tube" replacement and testers - for TVs and radios. Getting my first record player at 3 years old.. it only played 45s. Bubblegum Music In 1969, when we were 5, my neighbor Sally and I would put on variety shows for the neighborhood kids. We ended up getting a record company contract. We called ourselves "The Puppeteers" and got to play with the Rolling Stones, The WHO and the Doors. Sally's parents stopped it and Sally committed suicide. I still miss Sally. And who could forget the song "Sugar Sugar' by the Archie's. November 69

74 and remember all these, but Party Lines were never considered to be community chat rooms. Back then there simply wasn't enough infrastructure in place for everyone everywhere to have a private line and it was considered quite rude to eavesdrop on another's conversation.

The milk deliveries of the 60's were more like a visit then a delivery, providing you were out of bed at 4:00am!

As a child in the 1950s, my allowance was 20 cents a week. Faithfully, on Saturday mornings, my dad would put two dimes on top of my chest of drawers, and I suddenly felt rich! Why? It enabled me to buy FOUR candy bars! Last year (2023), I wandered into a candy store in the small downtown of Novato, California (just north of San Francisco), and I managed to find one of my favorite, but hard-to-find candy bars, called the Zero bar. And because they had quite a few, and knowing of their rarity elsewhere, I actually decided to buy two. Until I found out what I was going to pay for each one: $2.50! I left with one candy bar and a kind of sadness about reality, which included a very empty wallet. ~ Now regarding Herb Timms, I am not tossing my hat up in the air for him, because anytime we lose a personal involvement with other human beings, especially within the service industry, I think we lose a part of ourselves. I miss those days of briefly chatting with the service station attendant while the gas was pumping, and he washed my windows, checked the air in my tires, and checked the oil and water levels under the hood. Some things we should not toss our hats into the air for until we can really understand, if not visualize as well, what we are giving up in the long run.

I was a Booner, I remember the milkman and the breadman.

I was born the exact same day the Tiros I satellite was launched (reckon they forgot part of their payload). This video is certainly true; kids today will never understand the era we grew up in.

My aunt had a color TV and I would get my grandmother to take me to her house so I could watch "Dark Shadows" in color.

Ah yes, transistor raduos!!!!!❤❤

Many of the photos were from the 1950's (and even a couple from the 1970's), but overall the video was fairly accurate.

CB radio sets were big amongst youth then for private dialogue - sort of forerunner to the internet

How about wings with windows in cars?

I think the milkman was everyday, but soon we were getting cartons from the grocery store. I miss the Helms Bakery truck that came every week. 😢 And I will always, ALWAYS miss the tube testing machines and grown men standing in long lines, holding brown bags filled with glass tubes waiting to get their tubes tested. 😊

Being decent, doing chores to earn money, actually learning and being taught REAL EDUCATION in schools, caring for the planet... nothing like "kids" from 1980-present.

A few comments here. 1) Portable radios were all not as compact as depicted. Most were too large to fit into you pocket as the video claims. 2) Not everyone had a set of encyclopedias in the house gathering dust. Most of us had to trek to the library. 3) Car windows. Why was it joy to wind down a car window????

I am 69 so I remember many of the things in this video , but when I was a kid we never did Duck and Cover in my school , maybe our school administrators thought it was a waste of time or my town was in no danger of a nuclear bomb ..

You can still buy transistor radios, I have one I bought at Walmart 2 yrs ago, made by Sony.

Duck, cover and kiss your arse goodbye is what we 60 kids used to say. The party line didn't last long with all the overheard gossip causing feuds. I think because we were kids we tend to forget just how violent the 60's were. Vietnam, race riots, black panthers, the weather underground, etcetera. The Kennedy's, MLK Jr., Malcolm Little X, Medgar Evans, so on and so forth a whole bunch of murders and "suicides".

When we got a color screen Found out “Little Joe’s” jacket was green

Or the "Good Humor Ice Cream" truck nearing!

16 years old and i was opening, closing and running gas stations by myself along with doing tire repair, oil changes, tuneups, battery charging. Probaby against the law these days like it seems about everything else us kids used to do back then is.

My mom signed up for free records from Capitol I think and they had a deal where they gave a free transistor radio for ordering. Mom gave it to me and I was one happy little adventurer, taking the music with me! I started first grade in 1965 and never had to do a duck and cover drill. I guess by then schools had figured out that a desk isn't going to help much. After that the slogan was bend over and kiss your a** goodbye! 🤣 I do remember the fallout shelter symbols on some buildings, like the public library that had a deep basement.

U not only got the print of each photo, u also got the negative(the image on a plastic strip) so you could make more photos. Everything was Kodak from rochester, ny it was a wonderful place to live and work!! They had money in Rochester!!
