1950S SCRAPBOOK (HB)

This book provides a nostalgic glimpse of a bygone age with a definitive collection of printed ephemera featuring over 1,000 products and images from the 1950's. After ten years of austerity, the early 1950s saw rationing draw to an end and every facet of the era is represented here, conjuring up the life and times of the decade, from the Festival of Britain and the Coronation of Elizabeth II to the abundance of toys and television programmes and the birth of rock and roll.
