Velma's Fabulous Fifties

This image came from the fabulous tack-o-rama website.

I decided to make Free Retro Graphics into a blog. With this format, I can tag and categorize all the images, and you–dear reader–can choose an image through either of those methods or by entering a term in the search box.

You’ll still be getting the same fifties stock images (all those happy housewives), fabulous ads from 1950s magazines & free retro clip art as before. I’ve also been making some retro backgrounds and will provide a link to them (I made a separate site).

It will take me a while to get everything up and organized, so bear with me. Once I relocate the pictures I’ve already uploaded,  I’ll be adding additional ads, clip art, fiction excerpts, etc., from a new stash of 1950s and (early) 1960s magazines. I’ll also be adding recipes and clip art from fifties cookbooks. The date range I’m focusing on is 1953 – 1963 (approximately).

Also, you can comment–tell me what you think, or if there’s a particular image you’re looking for that you can’t find, you can request it. Click on each image to get the larger one.
