The Year That Froze in Time. 1975 Was FIFTY Years Ago.
If you just did the math and gasped, you’re not alone. Let’s talk about the hair, the fashion, the film photos… and why your memories from 1975 deserve a comeback. It hits you like a Polaroid flash: 1975 was 50 years ago. Half a century. The year of pet rocks, platform shoes, and disco dreams. If you remember it, you lived it—and chances are, you snapped it. Dozens of photo prints are stuffed in drawers, shoved in shoeboxes, or collecting air in the attic.
But those pictures? They’re more than just old. They’re aging. 1975 Was FIFTY Years Ago.
A Personal Time Capsule
My mom still has her photo albums from 1975. When I visited her, she pulled one out. The pages were yellowed, sticky with tape, and curling at the corners. But the first photo? I was covered in chocolate cake at my third birthday. She cried. I cried. It reminded us both that those snapshots don’t just show the past — they are the past. And unless we act, they’re disappearing.
