10 stunning examples of old-school fashion found in family albums

Those dad's...Wow!

My mom also came over from Germany in 1959, and could speak no English.

That's a nice Cadillac, but why is it so dirty?

Diane Herbert Wall, Grooming took a priority, and people were still cooking from scratch, doing more physical work (at home and in employment - a lot less sitting), so the result was healthier and slimmer people than currently. Also, they ate fat. Our bodies do better with more fat and less starch. Guess what the dietary guidelines have been telling us to do - the opposite. And unfortunately, with processed foods, there can be a lot of hidden sugar and simple starches. And these tend to make people feel hungrier and eat more.

I’ve been around since the 1st 1/2 of the 20th century. And I approve this message.

Diane Herbert Wall, you need to ask this because?

Were people better looking then? Or just thinner and well groomed?

Where are the fashions? except for #s 1, 2 and 9 there all headshots,

Not much fashion in any of these shots.

Wonderful pictures of some gorgeous people! Thanks for sharing!

Great pictures. Handsome people.

Love number 6. At sea

6 is adorable! Could have been taken today.

Great memory photos! 😊

I was expecting a photo from every decade of the 20th century.

Richard Perkins, Oh c'mon, he does too, a little bit. :)

All the Moms were beautiful and all the Dads gorgeous. Dad #2 looks like a scene out of Hud, #6 resembles Dyan Cannon, #7 reminds me of Esther Williams, and #9 DOES look a lot like George Clooney. :)
