About this product

Product Information

With few TVs, children in the 1950s made their own entertainment: they played conkers, built dens and go-karts, climbed trees and re-enacted fights from the latest cinema blockbuster. Food was, for many years, still rationed and bought from the local corner shop. There was no pre-packed food, frozen food or many of the other luxuries that we take for granted today. Families would gather around the radio to hear the latest dramatizations such as the incredibly popular show Dan Dare, which was sponsored by Horlicks and was first broadcast in 1951. A trip to the cinema included a Pathe News reel, cartoons and a double bill featuring the latest movies. Much has changed for children over the years and this book shows what life was once like for the children of the 1950s including home life, school days, music and fashions.

Book safely packaged and delivered promptly. Item as described. Very impressed by the quick delivery of this book. This is a great book (I am familiar with earlier editions) and a must have for those interested in audio recording, to get this edition for a great price was a complete no brainer. Would recommended this seller. No communication needed, really, with such a quick delivery- but clearly communicated as to dispatch. Thank you, WeBuyBooks.

    Good read and a good gift

    I wasn't born in that era but I have bought it as a gift and I'm reading it beforehand.I have also purchased the 60s and 70s childhood in the series which is more relevant to me and It takes me back and Nostalgia really sets in, especially when something is mentioned that I was really particularly interested in. Things came to mind when I had totally forgotten about and brought a smile to my face and put people and places in the picture which no longer exists. Sometimes they said about times and items that I had to Google that was educational. Well worth the money for yourself and a good idea for a gift for male or female.

    Informative and easy to read

    The book is bloody good, not perfect of course! I think more about the difference Clem Attlee,s great Labour government made was needed. But well done!

    An excellent little book.

    An excellent little book for those whose childhood was spent growing up through the 1950s which will help to bring back memories or for those people with an interest on the childhood years spent by those who lived in this decade.
