For posts themed after the sixth decade of the 20th century, 1950 - 1959.

Depictions of the 1950s are heavily biased towards depictions of American settings, as most of the world was recovering from World War II, while the 1950s carries an air of nostalgia among Americans. Expect massive cars with chrome and fins, checker board floored diners, leather jacket clad greasers, rock and roll music, soda shops, jukeboxes, sock hops, drive-in movie theatres, and corny B-movies about space men and giant monsters.
