Product Description

Product Description
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 the celebrations came for the Queen's Silver Jubilee.

4.0 out of 5 stars Memory Lane, 17 Aug 2005
What a fantastic trip down memory lane! I bought the 1970's book for my husband's 45th birthday and we spent a brilliant time flicking through and remembering some great sweets and not so great clothes! We enjoyed it so much that I bought the 60's version for a friend's 50th birthday and she was delighted! A book that will be returned to again and again - ours now takes pride of place in the loo!

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic resource!, 3 Jun 2007
By E. Heckingbottom "elaineheck143" (U.K.) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
What an amazing selection of pictures of the 1970s! I spent hours pouring over this, reliving the memories of my childhood and teenage years; and my class of 10 and 11 year olds were fascinated to look and see the way things were when their teacher was young!

If you are into scrapbooking, or if you have strong memories of life in the 70s, this is the book you want! it will take you right back, and will remind you of fashions, packaging and even flavours of that era!

5.0 out of 5 stars Getting nearer to yesterday, 27 Nov 2004
By Robin Benson - See all my reviews
(TOP 100 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
Mister Opie's tenth wonderful Scrapbook carries on with the same unique presentation, each themed spread has one big still-life photo filled with packaging and printed matter. The items are carefully arranged so you can get an appreciation of what they looked like and don't be put off because the book has only sixty-two pages, it opens up to spreads twenty-one inches wide by fifteen deep and includes 1400 items in color.

Like the other Scrapbooks what is shown is the everyday stuff that could be found in any British home and as this is the Seventies, one spread is devoted to the change to decimal currency in 1971. The spread for groceries and the one for cleaning and toiletries probably show more than two hundred examples of packaging. Pop music with four spreads is a bit too much though. The list just goes on, fashion, television, cigarette packets, comics, film posters, board games, confectionary, car brochures, football, magazine and newspapers and more and more. Every time I look through these Scrapbooks I find something I hadn't noticed before.

If you are interested in what printed matter and packaging was in the average home during the Seventies this book will show you.
