As anyone lucky enough to live in the 50's will tell you...this was one of America's greatest decades. Muscially, the standards were still popular but owning cars and gathering at the malt shops would soon add a new dimension to the American muscial landscape. So join us as we shine the spotlight on the music of the Fabulous Fifties!

A gallon of milk: $1.00
Loaf of bread: $0.19
Postage stamp: $0.03
Ford car: $1,879 - $3,408
