I've also seen the Beatles live in concert twice, and on the Ed Sullivan Show. Party lines, black and white TVs (no cable TV), and hula hoops! 😁 😁 😁
Ever own a Walkman? 😁 😁 😁Remember not long ago when CDs were the magical technology of the future? Completely redundant now and most kids have never owned one!

Thinking about it, my father bought our first colour TV in 1980 damn! Around that time there were only 3 channels (for 15 hours all you could see was a test signal) and every time you change the channel you have to reset the aerial.Wow ! ! I just did "bowling" !
black and white tv ? ? I guess with only 1 or 2 channels ?
you make me laugh @crescent moon ! !

Funny how I'm still stuck on 2 channels even when I have over 50 channels at any given time...What a great thread !!
I remember the first television. It was black & white and was bought by my parents in 1953 so we could all watch the coronation of Queen Elizabeth 2nd.
