THE PUBLIC READER
10 years ago
Imagine, a whole ten years to talk about. Not just a decade, but a decade of massive changes that would influence the world for the next fifty years. Events such as a world war, the homefront, American industry leads the way, radio reigns, women take the mens place on the assembly lines, swing music, atomic bombs, postwar housing, baby boom, America' new role in the world. Come along, it'll be fun and maybe a little informative.

Having been born in 1944, I find your site most interesting.
The 'new' washing machine in the photo looks very much like my mother's 'old' machine that was replaced by a Bendix front-loading model that bounced across the floor during its first load. The problem was solved by building a level concrete platform and sinking the legs into the wet mixture. Needless to say, replacing it several years later proved to be another real challenge.
Thanks for the memories!
