"Longing for America of Yesteryear: American Culture & Vintage Then and now, many people are inexplicably drawn to America. The culture that America has cultivated. The vintage items born within its history. They always stimulate our curiosity. A large house with a lush green lawn. A massive private car embodying the motto "power is justice." Faded denim, a well-worn leather jacket. Route 66, where a dry wind blows across the desolate land. When we reflect on such landscapes and objects, we realize that there is a longing for America in the back of our minds.
The 1950s, a time of post-war reconstruction and the birth of rock and roll; the 1960s, shaken by the rise of hippie culture and the anti-war movement; the 1970s, when each individual became conscious of their "individuality" and the beginning of diversity was felt; the flamboyant 1980s, the heyday of pop culture; the 1990s, a time of analog energy and the foreshadowing of digital. How exciting it would be to travel through different eras of America in a DeLorean, just like in the movie "Back to the Future"! For all those who yearn for and are fascinated by the good old days of America, this special feature unravels the "universal charm" of American culture and vintage items.
