I also remember the 3-cent stamp.

Wish I had kept the old old Sears or Montgomery Ward catalog when a shirt was less than 50 cents. Maybe people really did make only $1.00 a day back then.

If one goes back to percentage of income, maybe some things still cost the same.

If one only had 10 cents, 25 cents was a LOT of money then.
