from Pass It On: funny, fascinating and useful retro household tips from the 1950s · host DC Thomson

As they look back at some of the adverts that appeared alongside the Pass It On tips in the 50s, Connie, Steve and Chris discuss whose job it is to polish shoes, the economic independence women gave themselves with Ann Summers and Tupperware, and they wrestle with the complex moralities of real versus faux fur. Connie also gets terribly confused about roller-skates.  You can get 20% off the Pass It On books themselves – as a gift for a friend or even yourself! – at dcthomsonshop.co.uk, using the discount code ‘vinegar’ at checkout; that code is valid till 20 November 2019!
