Were the Fifties Really Fabulous?

Ann Freedlander Hunt

Do you ever wish for safer times? Is the world simpler now? Was our country safer in the 1950s? Was that decade really fabulous? Were you happy then? If you hadn't been born yet, what do you know about the fifties? Did your parents tell you about it? For some, it was a happier and an easier time. For others, the opposite is true. The average price of gasoline in 1950 was about a quarter and White Castle Hamburgers cost a dime. Car designs were at their peak. Families dressed up to go shopping. Kids made up games and played outside all day until it got dark. Elvis Presley and Pat Boone were very cool back then. Or were they way cool? Teenagers danced to the new sound of rock and roll. The Golden Age of Television began in the fifties. The Cold War and a period of unprecedented economic growth were a large part of the decade as well. It was a different world. Step into the past and experience it again or for the first time. You'll feel swell!
