Or the large quarantine signs posted by front doors for contagious diseases? I know our town used them for measles, mumps, chicken pox, and scarlet fever.

Use a sewing machine powered by your feet on the treadle?


@millieshops  I remember black death/mourning wreaths people hung outside their front door when a household member died.  

Some folks even had the dead laid out in the parlor or living room during the 50's early 60's.

@SandySparkles    I have to admit that I remember everything on the list.  I would like to add one more...

I remember that we had a party line on our phone.  We had to make sure that no one was on the line if we wanted to make a phone call.  🤷🏻‍♀️

Ah yes...the good old days...

I still do #14 because I still drive my 1989 Pontiac Firebird I bought 1 yr old in 1990 for $7,999.  Smiley Very Happy



@Susan Louise Welcome!🥰 WOW! Congratulations!👍🏻 My first car was a beautiful strawberry red colored manual 89' Ford Escort GT. that I LOVED❤️! My dear younger brother taught me to drive it! I owned it for four years then traded in for another car!😊

 

I am so impressed that your car STILL runs today! They certainly do not make them like that anymore!😊

Thank you SO much for caring to share today!💝

@Mombo1 Welcome and WOW!🥰 How impressive! I had to Google how it worked. There must have been a great deal of trust amongst neighbors back then! It simply would not work today sadly! I think it is AWESOME that you have such fond memories of that time!

 

THANK you SO much for sharing that wonderful memory with us!💝
