The LOGO network is running back-to-back episodes, weekday mornings, of "All in the Family" from the early1970s...
I was watching and found amusing several references to prices and costs back then.....and social subjects like gun control, political arguments between Archie (R) and Mike(D) ....
Gloria got a new job and bragged to Edith: "$40.31 ...pretty good for three day's work!"
Edith hit a priest's car with a can of peaches, on the fender AND the hood...the repair was $14.00....
And elderly couple visiting Archie and Edith lamented they couldn't marry and had to live together or their SS would be cut....his was $185.00 per month!!!
Archie ( in 1972 in Queens NY) said he bought his house ( a typical row style home in Queens) twenty years ago for $14,000....someone offered him $35,000. and he was going to jump on it-so much profit!!!!
I loved this show when I was younger ( I lived in Queens NY in one of those row style houses from 1965 to 1973).....That house sold in 2009 for $550,000.!!!!! ( Our family sold it in 1974 for $60,000.)..
Anyway....fun to look back to those simpler times.....the interior of the house and the clothing is a hoot too...
It was a funny show!
1972 was not THAT long ago (was it?!?)
