When I spotted this record holder that I had received one Christmas, it brought back so many memories of what life was like back in the 50's-60's.
Do any of you remember when there was still the threat of the Cold War? Do you remember when we had the storm or bomb alarms where you had to either hide under your desk, or in my case, be gathered into the schools bomb shelter situated in it's basement?
At my school we didn't use Elmer's glue. It was mucilage for all our craft projects!
My elementary books contained stories like 'The Gift of the Maji', 'The Little Match Girl' and many other character building stories.
Every porch in our neighborhood had one of these.
Just think how wonderful it would be to have your dairy products delivered right to your door! It also came in handy as a place to sit while watching the world go by or reading a book.
And, of course, dear Elsie was the lady we had to thank for all of that good 'moo' juice'.

Can you relate to any of my shared trips down memory lane? What memory stands out so vivid for you from one of your childhood Christmas?
