in the early 50's, milk was 17 cents a quart, a can of soup was 10 cents, a bag of potato chips was 10 cents and a serving of french fries was also 10 cents.
in the 60's, a "today's special" (complete meal) in a restaurant was $1.00 and a 200 mile round trip by bus from the city where i lived to Montreal was $4.00
Gas prices hovered around 30 cents per gallon...
and greyhound busses would do 80-85 MPH on the highway.
And everybody knew you could hide from a
nuclear nucular bomb by ducking under your desk. Ah, the good old days...
