Throughout the month of January, we are scanning and sharing a vintage film slide each day. This week we're sharing vintage vacation photos from California in the 1960s.
Capitol Records in Hollywood, California, around 1960.
1960s family memories
There is something about the 1960s that gets me every time. It was a tumultuous decade, but it sure had style. Check out the below photos and see if you don't agree...
Fancy updos....
Shift dresses and atomic George Nelson-inspired clocks...
Aluminum Christmas trees, smoking in the house (!) and slim suits...
A time when you couldn't delete the outtakes...
Sweater sets and red lipstick for daytime...
Wood paneling. This was taken around 1960, so the 1950s influences were still very noticeable. Love it though!
vintage vacation photos
Summer is quickly approaching, so in the spirit of the season, we decided to pull out the vintage family vacation photos! This week we're revisiting Hardin family vacations from the 1960s. I believe all of these photos were taken during trips to Florida. So much fun...
on the road: california in the early 1960s
This week's post has a little bit of everything -- vintage cars, vintage boats, mid-century architecture, vintage signage, palm trees, beautiful water, open roads, great ocean views...and electrical towers. Didn't want California in the 1960s to appear too perfect!
The prettiest vintage cars in a rainbow of colors.
Ahh, mid-century road tripping at its finest! There are so many fun details in these old film slides. Which is your favorite?
