No one in my family ever smoked. Or drank. Or used drugs. All lived to be very old.

At 2 minutes that cupboard/Hutch looks exactly like one we had so long ago. Exactly! Cool pictures.

When life was normal.

[@wendyryder2708]

What is normal? Is there such a thing?

[@joeleadslinger6138]

@@wendyryder2708 You must be too young to remember the good times when people had respect for one another, could actually dress properly, had meals at the table etc.

[@trixier6505]

I remember the decor from back then. Had a papasan chair and loved it.

[@estelleadamski308]

Definitely my era, so it all looks familiar, thanks!

[@jackiekrupp355]

Our family took so many photos with relatives lined up on the sofa and somebody dressed up to go out standing at the front door. A lamp was usually in the photos too. Looking at these photos I guess we all did the same thing.

[@billiebobbienorton2556]

The one at 7:44 is so heartwarming and innocent. Sigh........

[@josephleister9198]

Awesome old photos....thanks

[@codzy3532]

love the 70s pics i remember back in 75 dad would cook sunday dinner and we had to be at the dinner table or else........today......no family values or anything familyish ppl just laugh at it im glad i was born 63 i grew up in the best eras 70s 80s 90s 😊❤👌👵💐🌸🌹🥀

[@andrewbrendan1579]

That was fun! What stood out for me was the stripes and patterns on the mens and boys shirts and pajamas. Looked very familiar to someone born in '61! In one photo we see a boy wearing a shirt with buttons only going about a third of the way down the front. I don't know why, but my mother used to call those "Wallace Beery shirts". Maybe they were popularized by that movie actor? The couple at 2:42 appear a second time at 6:41. Something about them makes me think they had just gotten engaged. Though she has a heavier build the lady at 1:52 reminds me a lot of the Joan Holloway character in the TV series "Mad Men". The picture of the lady reading the Nero Wolfe mystery paperback reminds of how in about 1975 a family member took a picture of me wearing my pajamas and reading a paperback copy of "Gone With the Wind"!

A fine collection of candid snapshots of people during those decades. 📸

1960 was everthing it was so nices

Was a young Kid in early 60'S... Life in a MUCH different America.. Like our favorite Albums from then many have Family Photo Albums that are just as treasured... Thanx for taking us back in time through these pictures..

[@shirleyhardt2701]

Shook me up a bit! One photo could be my Mother’s double. She has been gone for years and another photo just like my nephew who is 72!!

[@jamesvetromila6068]

Never read Nero Wolf. The girl sleeping on the couch was a cool pic with the red light.

[@jonimichalski9193]

Beautiful

[@btcbob11392]

One thing that stands out about photo's from the 50's 60's and 70's.. No fat people !!!

[@hardlife8122]

. that little girl sleeping on the couch, is so peaceful, in the dim room . gb* ~ hard life (MULDEW)

[@lisatrautner9426]

Some pics look like the 50’s.

[@calbob750]

Picture a time when your life was influenced by friends and family and not social media. When you weren’t bombarded by continuous advertising and every aspect of your life wasn’t monetized and advertised to make a buck. When you could look up at night and see stars and constellations and not starlink and satellites codifying every moment of our existence. And a gallon of gas was 39 cents, but a good job payed $100 per week.

[@adaeverleigh9584]

Any one if these photos would make an amazing album cover.

Has anyone ever said “hey that’s me “ ?

[@gothboschincarnate3931]

I connected to a previous lifetime thru a video ...so the answer is "yes!"

[@sillyputty3601]

I don't remember the '60s and '70s looking like this.

[@ericwhitehead6451]

With a few exceptions, a look at middle class America. Now disappearing. So sad.

[@davidlincolnbrooks]

Shame that I'll never know who any of these people are....

[@davidgibbs381]

I'm wondering what the back story is for the two boys on twin beds with the lady drinking a glass of Schlitz beer @ 2:34 ? Mom relaxing on a vacation with family perhaps?

[@billiebobbienorton2556]

The boy was given the beer by his mother. His mom is attempting to seduce him. Sick picture. Should be removed.

[@gordonhaire9206]

The photos all looked 1950s to me. But you have to realize the '50s lasted for nearly 20 years; from the Japanese surrender 15 Sept 1945 until Bloody Sunday 7 March 1965.

2:38... Schlitz beer can... is this these boy's room or parent's?...

[@billiebobbienorton2556]

[@lauranorwar]

Looks like they’re in a motel room. Im guessing it was a vacation and everyone was relaxing in their own way before bedtime.

[@johnmarshall4442]

This is for people who don't have their own family pictures to look at ?

[@kentuckylady2990]

I can smell the cigarette smoke.

[@kevinclark4369]

ok...the pic of the mom with her two boys in their pajamas. She is holding one boy one one bed, and has some kind if drink i her hand. on the nightstand, between the two bed is a can of Schlitz? Whose beer is it? 😎

Bad furniture daze...

[@pjesf]

Most of that decor was just...HORRORS

[@PBryanMcMillin]

Not for the time period. Sixty years from now, people will have the same reaction to much of what seems normal today.

[@pjesf]

@@PBryanMcMillin : I, for one, thought it was horrors back then

[@daisydukes8252]

I didn’t even think about the decor back then but it was so much better than what we have now.Furniture was built to last, not cheap garbage that we throw away. As in any time period some of the decor was not that desirable but many aspects were extremely gorgeous and unique. I wish I could have those back.They had flair and style.

[@marygrant882]

Most people couldn't afford much. Also decorating wasn't a big priority. Family, vacations, saving money for college. Those were bigger priorities.

[@ingeborgm6147]

You wrote "at Homes"...you probably meant "Capture People at Home". Homes is the plural of Home, but is not used in this particular sentence. I think perhaps whoever made this video does not use English as their first language. :)

[@daisydukes8252]

The best time! So wonderful!

SO accurate I had to bail out halfway through. Could not take it.
