Description
Did you know that a can of Campbell's tomato soup was a mere 11 cents in 1967? What about the fact that eggs were just 38 cents per dozen and a Hershey chocolate bar only five cents? 1967 certainly had a cost of living that might make you want to invent the first time machine, although we must remember that the minimum wage was just $1.40 per hour and the average annual income was $7,300. Yes, it was an entirely different world.
1967 was a memorable year in the United States, in every area of culture and society. While young people and "hippies" established the counterculture and "Summer of Love" while protesting the Vietnam War, a wide variety of influential movies, music, and books were released to critical and popular acclaim.Did you know that a can of Campbell's tomato soup was a mere 11 cents in 1967?
