I don't think this is dated far back enough, because while I got a quarter allowance (I think my first raise was to 50 cents), '57 Chevys were NOT desired. Well, except by my dad.
Most of the rest of it is true... I remember tvs warming up, my gym uniform in high school was HIDEOUS, and the only purebred dogs I'd ever heard of were the ones I read about in books.
And not only did my mom & grandmother still wear girdles and stockings, but wigs.
