Description

The soda fountain was such a sociable place. Folks exchanged news, views, and wisecracks too. Those bygone days are treasured in this sweet and stylish retro celebration. Ever wonder why the ice cream sundae is spelled with a dae instead of a day? You'll find the answer to that and dozens more pop-culture trivia questions, all featured with nostalgic photos and illustrations. Old-fashioned full-color photos and illustrations on every page appear with pithy quotations and comical quips drawn mainly from mid-twentieth-century writers -- or with brief, entertaining one-page essays that give historical background to many aspects of twentieth-century pop culture. “Return to kindness, humor, and wisdom, when there was a time for everyone -- young and old.”
