Those bygone days are treasured in this sweet and stylish retro celebration. Ever wonder why the ice cream sundae is spelled with a dae instead of a day? You'll find the answer to that and dozens more pop-culture trivia questions, all featured with nostalgic photos and illustrations. Old-fashioned full-color photos and illustrations on every page appear with pithy quotations and comical quips drawn mainly from mid-twentieth-century writers -- or with brief, entertaining one-page essays that give historical background to many aspects of twentieth-century pop culture. ¿Return to kindness, humor, and wisdom, when there was a time for everyone -- young and old.¿
