 Fantastic resource! June 3, 2007

What an amazing selection of pictures of the 1970s! I spent hours pouring over this, reliving the memories of my childhood and teenage years; and my class of 10 and 11 year olds were fascinated to look and see the way things were when their teacher was young!
If you are into scrapbooking, or if you have strong memories of life in the 70s, this is the book you want! it will take you right back, and will remind you of fashions, packaging and even flavours of that era!

What a fantastic trip down memory lane! I bought the 1970's book for my husband's 45th birthday and we spent a brilliant time flicking through and remembering some great sweets and not so great clothes! We enjoyed it so much that I bought the 60's version for a friend's 50th birthday and she was delighted! A book that will be returned to again and again - ours now takes pride of place in the loo!

Mister Opie's tenth wonderful Scrapbook carries on with the same unique presentation, each themed spread has one big still-life photo filled with packaging and printed matter. The items are carefully arranged so you can get an appreciation of what they looked like and don't be put off because the book has only sixty-two pages, it opens up to spreads twenty-one inches wide by fifteen deep and includes 1400 items in color.
Like the other Scrapbooks what is shown is the everyday stuff that could be found in any British home and as this is the Seventies, one spread is devoted to the change to decimal currency in 1971. The spread for groceries and the one for cleaning and toiletries probably show more than two hundred examples of packaging. Pop music with four spreads is a bit too much though. The list just goes on, fashion, television, cigarette packets, comics, film posters, board games, confectionary, car brochures, football, magazine and newspapers and more and more. Every time I look through these Scrapbooks I find something I hadn't noticed before.
If you are interested in what printed matter and packaging was in the average home during the Seventies this book will show you.
