The early 60's as I remember.

These use to be on every booth table in all the burger joints. 3 plays for a quarter. lots of Elvis, Everly Brothers, Ricky Nelson and Pat Boone. 45 records were $1.00 and Cokes were a Dime. Eisenhower was president and I won a 2 transistor radio to listen to. Leather jackets and ducktails were the style. We slicked our hair with



and our favorite drinks were Cherry Cokes and Cherry Fosifates.

We ate

candy bars and push-ups.


We washet it all down with a rootbeer.


Every kid had a Daisy.

and a box of BB's was a nickle.

Our kids will never know our simple pleasures nor will we understand theirs.
