Christmas in the 70ʼs book project

Christmas in the 70ʼs book project

Iʼm pleased to announce a new and fun project Iʼve become involved with that could really use input from any child/survivor of the seventies.

Christmas in the 70s book project
Christmas in the ’70sis a planned photo-essay book about, yes,Christmas in the ’70s, as told through the yellowed snapshots of Instamatics past. Christmas in the 70’s will be a photo-essay book that aims to celebrate that very special time, great toys, questionable fashion and those very odd carpet-color choices. Your Co-authors are Joal Ryan (Former Child Star Central) and yours truly. If you’ve got an old Christmas snapshot (circa the ’70s) of your old self (circa the ’70s), we’d love to see it. We’d love to hear aboutyour misty-water-colored memories, too.
Christmas in the 70s
Did your brother tear accidently tear open your stretch monster? Did you eat your sister’s play-doh? (I did!) Did mom get you a Parker Stevenson doll when you really wanted Shaun Cassidy? We want to hear about it. Check out the official blog and if you’d like to share a photo — and a story — of you in your Christmas-morn best (or worst), please email us at xmasinthe70s [at] yahoo.com.Please donʼt contact me through here, Iʼm easily confused.

    Is it just my computer, or are all the apostrophes in this post showing up as little squares?
