1963 - Collarless jackets became the rage, along with a strange new sound in music (and people still drank coca-cola from small bottles through a straw!) ≈

It's insane to think 1963 was 50 years ago. Hubby and I were discussing how 1993 was 20 years ago. It's sad when you do the math lol

Thank you for this. Especially post #1. I really love everyday life photos.

On the funny side, I can now identify with the old guys I would meet back then! They coud not remember what happened yesterday, but could tell you in detail what happened in 1923! I can't for the life of me remember what I had for lunch!

My hometown, c. early 1960s. Our apartment was the building at extreme left -- the three second-floor windows were our living room and kitchen.
