Life in 1963
“Even the young lady who isn’t really interested in a career – only in the title of “Mrs.” – finds shorthand and secretarial training valuable. Thousands of young women continue to work even after they are married – to help earn money for a new home, to save for vacation travel, or to help meet unexpected expenses.”
--A quote from Gregg Shorthand, copyright 1963, page 15.
As much as I like the culture, fashion and art from the mid 1900s, if I actually lived back then I’m certain I would’ve killed myself. But that's just my opinion...
I would've died at the age of 7 during an asthma attack.

Wow. :( I wouldn've been freaked out by the Cuban Missile Crisis, definitely.
