I think the best thing about this picture is the fact that different races are getting on fine.

Those people would get a heart attack if they were transported into our time

And kids could be trusted with handling those bottles....

The Stepford Wives .... need I say more?! LOL

This was when we had to be PERFECTLY groomed for the lord and master to get home

In Spain, it was a SEAT 600. It was a small car, to the spanish people was like the Ford-T to de US-citizens, our first car!!. My mom had got one. We went to the beach, two moms and 4 kids inside, with all the beach materials!. It´s true! I swear

A dark page of american History.

I've shopped there, it's still open in the same location, but modernized of course

Slug bug! 👊

Damn, those hair!

Wow progressive male did the grocery shopping and pushed the pram around....

Ooh I would love to go there. So nice!

While all these people were watching him from outside...

Dang! That guy is handsome :)

Veggies first!

9¢ a lb. for ground beef? That was cheap, even for the 1940's

It's great u could leave a kid outside. They were disciplined enough to not run away. And at least they wouldn't get kidnapped.

Where to start here? Traumatized Chihuahuas, girl in bathing suit and... what did Jayne buy?

As a frequent Publix shopper, I know they kept those floors for at least 40 years. Must be durable!

Some things never change...

Oh, look, Tide ! No one knew about it`s nutritional value back then :D

Home is where your Grocery is

Not so giant now..

Love the curls!

Man, those cans where tough stuff

I love the wooden crates

Quaker Oats - been around forever

Looks like a shirt and tights.

This one looks so staged....

"COOKIE PARADE"!!!! That is what I'm calling dessert from now on, no matter what!

those feather dusters are genuine.

Is a wedding happening back left?

OCD employees only

I can't believe our parents dressed us like that.

I remember round conveyors!

When's the last time anyone bought Pyrex for 79¢

I was a box boy! He looks much cooler than I was though.

Wow! That's a mouthful to say!

Man looks like he’s saying “How dare you people charge 28 cents for this box of aspirin?!” ..... “Well, sir I just work here”

the cars are so beautiful!

Her name is At?

that glass bottle schwepps looks good.

Screaming Yellow Zonkers! That's a throwback! I don't know what Cheddar Taters are, but I need them in my life even if I don't need them in my bloodstream.

They had something to do, they learned to work and have fun with friends... unlike your spoiled rotten kids who are glued to thier phones and video games 24/7... so to hell with your child labor BS

Before the arrival of plastic bags...

1 cent, the prices though

Even back then people didn't know how to park properly. Look at the car second to the right of those people walking to the store; it's parked over the line lol

I used to do the pest control in ALL the Ralph's stores and warehouses in the mid seventies.

I'd give just about anything to have that black 4-door in the lower left...the shiny one with the "suicide doors"!

The caption says Ralph's, as if it the store is named for Ralph. The sign on the store correctly says Ralphs, after George Ralphs, the founder. I'm not making this up.

So many cars, didn't they ration gas then during the war?

If this is the one in studio city, it's still there. I loved shopping in there when I was in LA.

wow, the lady on the left must be very tall!
