I remember when my father bought our first TV around 1957. Before that, we listened to a Sears Silvertone radio (that currently rests in my basement). We went to a general merchandise store. I was fascinated by all the children’s tricycles and wagons that were hanging from its ceiling. I even remember the cover of the first TV Guide that was included as a bonus in the sale.
Leaving your silver age foot care to a podiatrist is one of the advantages of medical insurance.
