The decade it all collapsed.

Anyone got some of JFK’s wife? she’s peak cuteness
>>4974866I've never thought of her as 'cute', but her sense of fashion always made up for her lack in looks.
>>4973378>Nothing will ever beat this type of signage style.Couldn’t agree more. Neon signs and old backlit signs—along with sixties styling—were our peak. The warm glow of neon and incandescent lighting gave a feel to cities of the pre-digital age that will sadly never be captured again. I remember signs like these when I was very young still being used.I hate the lifeless signage of today’s world with its ice cold LEDs. Same with the new Christmas lights.picrel is the same place in Manhattan/NYC as yours
>>4973378Look up “Broadway and Seventh Avenue” to see how much it’s changed. I was going to post it but then I realized that’d ruin the vibe.Something interesting:In the 1960s Manhattan Island had reached peak appeal, but as the decade wore on it became less and less safe to be out at night. By the mid-1970s, Lower Manhattan was a total ghetto. After about two decades as a playground for pimps, gangs, junkies, and all other manner of bottom feeders, the city cleaned up the island. The 1990s and early 2000s saw Manhattan become the gem it once was again, only for it to fall back to shit again now in the 2020s. It’s wild how many changes that small island has seen. Right now someone’s probably taking a shit on 7th Ave.
picrel:More neon, but this time in Las Vegas, Nevada. At this point the Italian-American Mafia—with help from corrupt cops and officials—still had complete control over the city’s gambling and vice economy.
The Velvet Underground performing somewhere during their short career with Nico.What I find interesting about picrel is that it’s ±60 years old, but it looks like any modern Millennial-Zoomer hipster band of today. All of these vintage instruments are still very much in style—as is the clothing. Funny how hipsters manage to be so unoriginal. The Sprite can on the amp is a cool detail.
