New Years Eve at Times Square - 1957 to 1958!!!!!

Believe it or not, here is part of New Years Eve at Times Square - from 1957 to 1958, with Guy Lombardo!!!! Seems very low-tech, compared to what we have today!!

[@vpking77]

This was when going to Times Square for New Year's Eve was an organic thing to do and not commercialized. No pens, no crime. A totally different time.

[@suadehart8915]

you didnt watch the video did you?

[@frdjr2529]

I was in Kindergarten in Brooklyn on New Year's Eve 1957-58. My parents were probably watching this.

I am surprised Guy Lombardo did New Year's Eve 1957-58 at the Roosevelt Grill. I had assumed every time he performed on New Year's Eve at the grand ballroom of the Waldorf-Astoria hotel every year from the early 1930's until his death.
