About this product
Product Information
Full of pop, punk and personalities, The 1970s Scrapbook sways through this energetic era on platform shoes to the beat of glam rock and disco mania. Teenyboppers screamed for their idols, whether David Cassidy, David Essex, The Osmonds, Bay City Rollers or Abba. Colour television brought it all to life, with a mixture of comedy from The Good Life to Fawlty Towers. Much of the TV action came from the USA featuring Kojak, Starsky and Hutch and the stunt riding of Evel Knievel. For children, animals came to life with the Muppet Show and the Wombles, while in space new horizons were beamed up with Star Trek and Star Wars on the big screen. Amongst all this fervour, Britain had been set the mathematical challenge of decimalisation in 1971, and then in 1977 came the celebrations for the Queen's Silver Jubilee. AUTHOR Since the 1970s, Robert Opie has amassed an unrivalled collection of packaging. He is the author of numerous publications and has given many talks to schools, as well as on radio and television. ILLUSTRATIONS Colour throughoutProduct Identifiers

An interesting and fun trip down Memory Lane !!
Superb book, highly recommended for an interesting and fun trip down Memory Lane ...and all those quirky 1970s fads and fashions !! ... My only criticism would be the glaring error in the commentary where D-Day (i.e. the date that the UK and Ireland converted to decimal currency) is incorrectly stated as 21 February 1971 ... the correct date is of course Monday 15th February 1971 (a fact confirmed if you look closely enough at the photos of a couple of the leaflets featured). In all other respects, this is a very enjoyable record of the popular culture of the era. [Note: I have recently also purchased an earlier printing of this book, where the date of decimalisation is wrongly stated as 14 February 1971 (on page 5) ... It appears the original error (14 Feb) may have been picked up by the publisher but the attempt to correct it in later editions (to 21 Feb) unfortunately made things worse! Poor researching/editing leading to this historical inaccuracy! The correct date of decimalisation, as I have stated, was Monday 15 February 1971].Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
