Black Friday Shopping 1964

November 28, 2013
I looked on the internet to see when the term "Black Friday" originated, it has some history dating back to 1869, but was really not coined until the 1960's for the day after Thanksgiving shopping.  

I have a "Picture Magazine" insert to the Minneapolis Tribune from November 22, 1964, and I thought it would be fun to look at the advertising.

  4. I loved this. It was so fun. I am however not a fan of decor in the 60s how about you? You should link this up to the hop. It was fun to see and I showed my hubby the man pleasing sweaters.
