What better way to celebrate the day of the dad than with this 1978 Father’s Day Catalog from Eatons?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Escape with me to a time when dads had bushy mustaches and a strong scent of pipe tobacco and Old Spice.<\/strong><\/p>\n

This catalog has everything a 70’s dad could want, it’s got all the ties, underwear, and cigarettes he can drink. Let’s dive in, shall we?<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The Promotion this year was a “Daddy Bag” you could wrap his gifts in, my family has one of these. In hindsight, “Daddy Bag” may be the worst name for something ever and I don’t think any of us ever wanted to be seen in public with this thing, it’s probably still in the hall closet.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"1978<\/a>\"1978<\/a><\/p>\n

You had to expect a page of ties.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Masculine Jewelry by Swank, it’s nice when a 3rd rate Hustler clone branches out into merchandise like this.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"1978<\/a><\/p>\n

Lloyd’s Stereos were kind of a “Dad brand”.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"70s<\/a><\/p>\n

Get dad a classy ashtray!<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Elastic waist band pants? I’m in.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Getting dad a mower on Father’s Day is the male equivalent of getting mom a frying pan on Mother’s day.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Time to musk up boys!<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I really wanted to make a joke about how the guy in the middle is Ray Buktenica but that may be the most dated reference I’ve ever created.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Old man brand recliners, I swear that every house on my block was issued one of these.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Happy Father’s Day!<\/p>\n
