Don't know how long we can get this game to go on to, but have a go anyway.In alphabetical order name an item you would see around in the 1950's ( it doesn't matter if you would also have seen it in the 1920's, ie, a tin bath, but don't include things from later decades ie, miniskirts.)

Employed women who had to wipe the toilet seat before you went into a public loo. Was that because of the tracing paper for loo roll? How often did they wash their cloths?
