Book Overview
Remember the Bionic Woman, Dippity Doo, Pop Rocks, "Planet of the Apes, " Peter Frampton, and white lipstick? "Do You Remember?" takes readers back to a simpler, tackier time, when TV shows were unabashedly corny and shags (carpets and hairdos) were all the rage. Over 130 images of long-lost-pop-culture items and unforgettable icons from the '50s, '60s, '70s, and even early '80s fill the pages of this wacky collection. "Do You Remember?" is the perfect gift for baby boomers, ex-hipsters, and even members of Generation X, sparking chains of remembrance that make Proust's madeleine look like just another cookie.

I Remember
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
"Do You Remember" really does take you back. It can best be described as a colorful TV collage in book form. From the Hardy Boys and Lawrence Welk, to Monty Hall and the infamous Academy Awards streaker, they're all here to jog some memories. The authors did a nice job of pulling together the expected (i.e. Donny & Marie and All in the Family) as well as the obscure and unexepected (i.e. Mason Reese, the Underwood Deviled Ham kid). Having the inside front and back covers resemble pages from TV Guide from September 1974 (when Gilligan and The Match Game dominated the air waves) was a clever touch as well. If you grew up watching TV in the 70s and 80s, you'll get a kick out of this book.
