grin The Tachistoscope and other things...
In Response To: A BLAST FROM THE PAST...NCR ()

Your post brought back a few memories:

Like "curb feelers" and "steering knobs." Since I'd been thinking of cars
Suicide knobs
Power-Glide transmissions
Chevrolet's ad slogan: "Smartest Make You'll Ever Move" (I think it was 1964.)

...unmentionables
panties, bloomers and step-ins
snuggies and long drawers

the word "pregnant" was once considered
a little too graphic

Expecting
Carrying

Technically, supper was the meal on Sundays that followed Sunday dinner. As a kid, everyone said "supper" every day of the week.

Early TV Commercials:

Ivory Soap: "Make this year nineteen thrifty three..."

GE washers: "GE Filter Clean, Cleans and Recleans."

Serutan is natures spelled backwards. (What the heck was Serutan.)

Does anyone remember the Tachistoscope from school?

Now I really feel OLD... grin
