It's a magazine that is written with the past in mind. There is a wonderful magazine out there that helps teach children, and young adults about life gone by. The photos will please the grandkids and maybe spur them to ask questions about the old days. Reading about other people will help spark your memory, besides, it is really fun turning back in time through the pages of this magazine. I highly recommend this for anyone doing their own memoir. It might bring back some pleasant memories, or call up a tear or two. If you love family stories and nostalgia, you will enjoy this magazine. The restored black and white photos are now sepia with age yet reproduced clear and glossy. The Fond Flashbacks page picks a particular year and recalls the people, places and events in words and photos. Old newspaper stories are included such as the one on the Lindbergh kidnapping. Back then we all read the book first then saw the movie.
#REMINISCE COM HATPIN MOVIE#
Movie memorabilia includes real-life memories from extras in those movies which were popular in the 1950 era. It was always filled with the most delicious cookies but they were only served when hand were washed on both side, and we were sitting down at the kitchen table. The one on cookie jars made me think of the apple cookie jar my Aunt Kit kept on top of her refrigerator where little hands could not reach.
He collects anecdotes from readers and uses them in a theme inspired two page feature.Īlong with memories are collectibles and these remind me of home. One of the most endearing feautures is by contributing editor Clancy Strock.
#REMINISCE COM HATPIN FULL#
There are full features, often with photos, and shorter features which are excerpts from contributions by subscribers. The essays are written by people who have lived through the times. There is no outside advertising, just page after page of articles and photos to stir the memories. I imagine the older readers are the largest percentage of subscribers. I think mostly people in their mid forties on up will like this magazine. Anyone who loves talking or thinking about the past will enjoy this magazine. You will drift away to another world while you read!īeautiful and nostalgic best describe this magazine which comes with glossy pages and some of the best photograph I have seen in any magazine. I definitely recommend the magazine Reminisce to everyone-young and old! Whether it serves as a reminder of your childhood, or an introduction to life as your parents or grandparents knew it-Reminisce is an excellent magazine. It was satisfaction enough to know I had found it. The hat pins are definitely hidden well, too! I spent many hours searching and searching for that hat pin! I made sure to find it every month, although I never mailed in an entry in the contest. Whoever finds the hat pin and mails in the winning entry with the correct page number on it wins a prize. My personal favorite part about this magazine is the contest: Find Miss Hattie's Hat Pin! Hidden somewhere in each issue of the magazine, there is a picture of a hat pin. Recipes I had heard of, but never tried, were brought to life, and I was able to taste the goodness my mother always told me about. There were recipes that my mother said reminded her of when she was a little girl. Stories about World War II captivated me, and long lost loves reunited melted my heart. My mother was born in 1935, and suddenly I was transported into her era. I learned about the way the world was long before I was ever born. Fun was spending time outdoors, and being involved with family. Suddenly, there weren't televisions in every home-only radios. I picked Reminisce out of the pile, opened the cover, and slipped into a totally different world. I thought it was for "old fogeys." I have never been more wrong in my life.
I wanted to read something good, but I was a little leary of this magazine. One boring day (as most of my teenage days were) I was looking around for something to pass the time. She had a subscription to almost every magazine imaginable, and I have yet to find one as interesting as this. My mother subscribed to Reminisce when I was a teenager, still living at home.
