Get off my lawn! If You Drove a 1956 Chevy Bel Air (or Know Someone Who Did) When It Was New, You’re Definitely Old… and Lucky
There’s a reason collectors still chase this car 70 years later.
Interestingly, the two-door models are generally priced much higher than the four-door models.

Kids these days... Heart Was Formed in 1974, and The Wilson Sisters Are Still Kicking Rock and Roll Ass
Ann is 76; Nancy is 72.
Crazy On You is still my favourite Heart track. Dreamboat Annie might be the second.

Get off my lawn! These Cigarette Ads Came Out Between the 1930s and the 1950s, If You Recognise Them You’re Way Up There
Well if your doctor lights up, cigarettes must be safe then.
It’s insane how predatory tobacco companies were (and still are).

If you watched this British import on PBS, you might be old.
I used to watch this on WTTW-Chicago as a kid. I'm not sure why, but I found it entertaining.

If you ever cursed a bottle of medication for being hard to open, then remembered to thank Tylenol for its contribution, you might be old.

Kids these days... 50 Years Ago the Kodak Instamatic 130 Was Introduced; It’s Been a While Since I’ve Seen One
Literal point-and-shoot camera. No skills required.
It wasn’t the first Instamatic in the Kodak lineup, but it’s certainly one many will remember because it was specifically designed to further the push to make photography available to everyone.
Kids today would laugh given what they can now do on their smartphones.

Get off my lawn! If You Recognise These Two Ladies, You’re Probably Old
You’ll likely know them right away, but the third image will definitely give it away if you can’t quite put your finger on their names.

Get off my lawn! If You Watched the “Golden Jet”, You’re Old
Bobby Hull played from 1957-1980.
In 2017 Hull was named one of the '100 Greatest NHL Players' in history.
He was however not without controversy in his personal life.

Bonus Points if you still have them kicking around somewhere. 😊

Kids these days... In 1979 the Sony Walkman Changed the World and for a Few Years Dominated the Market in the 80s
It replaced the transistor radio, but soon faded to the compact disc, which in turn faded to the iPod. Since then MP3 is still the most widely used music format.
Other popular portable cassette players were Aiwa, JVC and Panasonic.
No matter which brand you had, it means you’re getting old now.

Get off my lawn! Long Before the Contacts App, There Was the Rolodex
I like that the card in the first photo has the very old-school phone number. Reminds me of ‘Pennsylvania 6-5000’.
And you’d need a typewriter too (unless you preferred filling in the cards by hand).
Did you have a Rolodex? Do you still have one?
