Well, not really. $4.80 in 1960 has the same purchasing power as $46.00 today. And the minimum wage, which was $1.65/hr in 1960, calculates out to $15.81/hr today. Wages have barely stayed steady, while the cost of living has gone up.

Some of those look like not so fun. The hairdresser looks like an instrument of torture.

That electric perm looks scary. And I can’t imagine dressing up like those women. Or actually, ladies.

I remember the gas wars in the late Sixties: 24.9 cents a gallon, and lower!
