A collection of over 1,555 questions on early movies, radio shows, comic books, swing bands, hit records, fads, ads, headlines, history, sports, slang and the way we lived yesterday.
The questions have been sorted into 150 category quizzes. There are 34 wide-screen quizzes about the movies; 19 coast-to-coast quizzes about radio and early television; 8 colorful quizzes about the comics; 13 swinging quizzes about hit records, top bands, vocalists, and all that jazz; and scores of other quizzes on sports, famous folk, politics, books, soda fountain jargon etc.
Its range is Prohibition to the 50's, so there's something for everyone except teenyboppers to remember.

A great older book you're going to love, if you love nostalgic trivia.
