1960s American life in glorious technicolor

For anyone wanting to take a trip back through time to the 1960s in America, Recollection Road has created the perfect photographic retrospective of the events and people who shaped the decade.

There were several critical social and cultural moments that changed the course of American history during the 1960s. Among those were the assassination of JFK, Martin Luther King, and Robert Kennedy, as well as the Vietnam War.

There were also developments in the world of sports and entertainment, with television become a dominant force in family homes. The first Super Bowl was won by the Green Bay Packers.

For entertainment, families often gathered around the living room television, where they had one of three channels to choose from – often selecting from popular shows like Bonanza and The Andy Griffith Show.

In fashion, young people and teens could be found wearing bright colors, bell-bottom jeans, and other apparel that would be sure to gain attention when they went out on the town.

Perhaps the most important moment of the decade came at the end, when the Apollo 11 mission sent the first men to the moon in 1969. Americans across the country were enthralled by this achievement.

Recollection Road captured it all with vivid photographs and a helpful narrator track that explained the context and the significance of the events that changed the lives of so many.
