A LONG (1 hr) BLAST TO THE PAST WITH A 1958-'59 MONTGOMERY WARD CATALOG!

[@bremontgomery8372]

I think all that "blah blah blah" at the beginning gives great insight into why you have such a warm and kind-hearted presence. It must be such a blessing to not only have been raised to be open to everyone but to have a father who grew up that way.

[@savvykit]

As someone who’s only 20 years old, I really love the older fashion and music from this time

[@JeannieBASMR]

Glad you enjoy it!

[@takwikhajoyan3702]

Jeannie is one of the most amazing person that i’ve known for ASMR videos , she is just lovely and thank you for being you ♥️♥️♥️so appreciating

I wish I was there with you because I'm just as excited as you are ...I love anything from the 50s back ..I would love to see 40s&30s just all of it ..thank you so much ..I'm so excited!!!❤️❤️🥰🥰

[@krissytee7]

Yes, bring back these fashions and the quality!!! 1000+ pages in a catalog!!! Oh the joy!!! Thank you Jeannie!

[@JeannieBASMR]

Yes! Except the girdles!!! Lol! Thank you! 😊

[@lizbrown4790]

Please don’t ever run out of old magazines! 😊 I love all your videos, but your flip- throughs and commentary of any era before the 80’s is relaxation gold. ❤️

[@JeannieBASMR]

Oh thank you! I appreciate that!

[@ranauzer5760]

Gosh i want these clothes😱. Fashion was way better than today. And the models...well they are georgeus😳

[@Olivia_G88]

This was my mother’s era and honestly I have no words for that magazine lol

[@JeannieBASMR]

It’s incredible!! Lol!

[@billielarson3282]

No need to apologize for the loud crinkly pages, Jeannie! I enjoyed them 😊

[@JeannieBASMR]

I'm so glad!

[@jbecsable]

Omg same! Crazy tingles every time!

[@ashsara9233]

Jeannie the thing about you is that in front of the camera you are a complete natural. You can tell your personality is exactly the same whether you’re talking to us or the supermarket assistant. Genuine through and through xx

Don’t worry about the loud page crinkles, because I think most of us love to hear that!

[@meghanmajor1586]

Yes! 💯💯

[@marel5932]

Omgosh I still have furniture from Montgomery Ward. I inherited it from my parents. It's well over 60 years old. I miss when things were were well built!

[@JeannieBASMR]

That’s so awesome! Great quality!

[@ih2439]

Wow, those coats were EXPENSIVE! $200 in 1959 is about $2,000 in today’s dollars. I wonder how many people were actually able to afford coats like this! But cost aside, another wonderful video, your retro magazine reviews are truly the best.

[@JeannieBASMR]

Wow! That IS expensive! 😳 Thank you for this!

[@faegibb4043]

You're treating us with all the uploads lately! ❤

[@tracyvest3069]

Nothing was as gorgeous or classic as the women's clothing of the 40s and 50s. It amazed me that most of the shoes could be worn fashionably today. All the girdles reminded me of my grandmother (born in '21) who wore one every day of her life. And the memories of my mother's (born in '49) vast slip collection. We are much more comfortable but often makes me wonder if we have left some glamour behind along the way.

[@JeannieBASMR]

I totally agree! I love my shorts and t-shirts…but a pretty cotton dress would be easy as well…(I think.) 😁

[@susanseligmann6033]

I was one of those mothers and still have a vast slip collection for some strange reason. I just couldn’t toss them. Thx so much for making me smile❤

[@TrishaR84]

I love this! My grandmothers were in their late teens/early twenties in '58/'59 and my parents were both born in '58 and '59. It's interesting to see the type of clothes they might have worn around that time! 😍

[@elizabethjackline2055]

MW was just an amazing store!!❤❤❤

[@gracee7242]

I love these long videos! Also, a huge thank you for continuing to upload even when going through a hectic time! 😊

This was absolutely awesome! I love it when you look through old catalogs and magazines, and find myself gasping with excitement right along with you! Please do as many of these as possible. You are my new favorite KZbinr!!

You are so welcome! Thank YOU for this!

[@tiffanyneff3117]

I saw it all and i loved every minute so fascinating and interesting just loved it all!!! 🥰

[@JeannieBASMR]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@Fluffymonkeyem]

Gosh this is so cool. 1958 is when my mom was born, and I love seeing the fashion that ladies were wearing in that time period. My mom's mom was in her 20's then and my my dad's mom was in her early 30s. Seeing this makes me feel more conencted to them. The coats were so beautiful! The princess cut one with the little tuck in the back? To die for! And the maternity styles! Wow.

[@JeannieBASMR]

I love these styles, too!! So refined!

[@tracystoutbehunin9303]

Love this awesome asmr video. I know she apologizes for the loud pages but that is part of the appeal. These older pages give it such a rich sound.

[@JeannieBASMR]

Thank you! I appreciate that!

[@joshf.4270]

New to your channel, nobody does these retro magazines read through like you. So happy to have found you! Also…I too have the bendy double jointed thumbs, so I understand what you go through. 😂 People get so freaked out!

I am watching this video right now on my TV. What a fascinating brochure! I love looking at old advertising from back in the day. I will come back to this video often! X

[@Y13dea]

The crinkles were so enjoyable! No need to stress about time, we love your long videos. The part about buying a dog made me giggle too.

[@JeannieBASMR]

Thank you so much!

[@sharonriley6574]

I just had surgery and this was wonderful to watch while convalescing. Also my moms era. Thank you for the vid.

[@JeannieBASMR]

Aw, sending healing vibes, friend! ♥️♥️♥️♥️

[@c3cubed]

A note on the "haute couture" aspect of the apparel at the beginning of your "coats" segment: After the untimely death of Dior in Paris, his protégé (Yves St Laurent) was named the new head of the fashion house. What you are seeing here - is St Laurent's international influence of his immensely successful debut collection focused on the "A-Line" cuts, which he appropriately entitled "La Trapeze". Editorial at that time heaped praise on the new designer, waxing poetic with words such as: "St Laurent has saved Paris".

[@JeannieBASMR]

I love factoids like this!! Thank you so much!

[@LannieLord]

I cannot believe how YOUNG Dior was when he died ! Did he smoke 3 packs of cigarettes a day ?

[@c3cubed]

@@LannieLord It's a stressful business. He had a heart attack. Most everyone smoked in those days, yet didn't always die from cigarettes. Today, heart attacks suddenly seem to be quite common post-covid in non-smokers, especially with very young and fit, healthy athletes. I find that a more curious phenomenon.

[@BrightAngelJoana]

​@@c3cubedhonestly everything we eat now has bad ingredients for our health, nothing is natural honestly...I'm really lucky to have a garden and natural food that my mom my dad and my grandma planted😊

[@julia_ivanenkova_artist]

Thank's for gorgeus video!💐

[@oldtimesong]

This catalog is insane! when you arrived to the dog section, haha! I'm listening to this while working and I had to stop and see how it all looked because it sounded insane. Thank you so much for these types of videos! I was born in the 80s, so I never had access to anything from this time. This is fascinating!!

[@JeannieBASMR]

Awesome! Thank you! And yes...the dog ads got me by total surprise, too! Wow!

[@ForTheLoveofTranquility]

This was so fun! My family and I used to shop at Montgomery Ward often. I love polka dots too.

[@lydianorris1583]

I think I speak for everyone when I say you could make this a series and just go through every single page! I would watch every single one on repeat!! Thanks for all you do!

[@mamabear7638]

I found you about a month ago and you are so amazing! Your voice is so soothing. I love when you do these videos with vintage magazines/catalogs.

Hi Jeannie! I used to shop there as a child with my grandma in San Diego. We were so sad when they closed. Sweet memory lane. Thanks and glad you made the move safely 🎉💜

[@JeannieBASMR]

Thanks for sharing!!

[@emmapowell374]

I absolutely love this video! I wish things were this simple these days

[@BethanyWilks]

My mom was born in 1947. Right after the war. They are polish. She adopted me when she was 50 in 95. I recently found an old photo album of hers. Was interesting seeing her and her people and their fashion throughout the years. Didn’t appreciate the outfits she put me in from her children in the 70s. But she said I was styling and that “all these clothes would make a come back” 😂

[@kyky868]

I’m 18 and would wear a bunch in this magazine, including the models’ hairstyles. Vintage fashion is just so elegant 🥰

[@JeannieBASMR]

I totally agree!

[@catmoon2009]

thank you Jeannie very much enjoyed the catalog walk through the crinkly paper is fun. I was thinking at that time all of this was made in America ..........the woman fashion is so fabulous .

Thank you for sharing Jeannie 🤗! I have to say, I’ve been a subscriber now for 6 months I’d say, & I just want you to know how much I enjoy coming on this app & having a video like yours to be able to look forward to. You have helped me not only in the asmr aspect, but also just to take a good look at life & to remind myself of the fonder memories that I have when things have gotten tough. And I thank you for that. You may not know how amazing you are, but I wanted to be one of the many to remind you that you are. This world has truly been blessed by having you be one of its many gifts by sharing your wisdom & passions with us. I thank you again, & may God bless you & your beautiful family 🤍!

This was amazing! Hands down THE best ASMR channel I've come across in a long time. So much better than people making mouth sounds into a mic! The 50s and 60s were epic. So many of these styles are coming back! I love seeing this time period...I also think it would be really interesting to see a magazine or catalog from the 1900s-1930s if you ever come across one. Keep up the amazing work!

[@JeannieBASMR]

Wow, thank you! (Someone else said it was boring and monotonous! Lol! Thankfully the good comments outweigh the bad!) I will look for the earliest mags!! Great idea. I did do a late 30s or early 40s a while back...

My family is from the Bay as well. Newark for my dad, Fremont and Union City for my mom. They were more connected to a lot of the issues being a middle class pair of Black families but the Bay was always diverse. One of the enduring things I live about it (I was born in Oakland) is how folks just interact. You find a way to meet people where they’re at. I have Filipino, Jewish, white, Samoan and Mexican friends along with my Black ones. It was never a thing.

[@JeannieBASMR]

100%! The Bay Area just had everyone! The best thing about all the ethnicities was the amazing FOODS I got to eat at all my friends’ houses! Lol!

[@jenniferannfox2316]
