I've also seen the Beatles live in concert twice, and on the Ed Sullivan Show. Party lines, black and white TVs (no cable TV), and hula hoops! 😁 😁 😁
Ever own a Walkman? 😁 😁 😁Remember not long ago when CDs were the magical technology of the future? Completely redundant now and most kids have never owned one!![]()

Thinking about it, my father bought our first colour TV in 1980 damn! Around that time there were only 3 channels (for 15 hours all you could see was a test signal) and every time you change the channel you have to reset the aerial.Wow ! ! I just did "bowling" !
black and white tv ? ? I guess with only 1 or 2 channels ?
you make me laugh @crescent moon! !

Funny how I'm still stuck on 2 channels even when I have over 50 channels at any given time...What a great thread !!
I remember the first television. It was black & white and was bought by my parents in 1953 so we could all watch the coronation of Queen Elizabeth 2nd.
