It’s been a little while since we looked back at the good ol’ days, hasn’t it? Well, the 1960s were a wild time with plenty of new styles and tall hairdos. We were still without phones, and most of us still had a radio in our home along with our tiny (compared to now) televisions. We went to the library, went dancing, and ate at local restaurants. However, there’s some times you want to go way back, and these vintage photos are just what you need. Check them out below for a step back in time.
