"Modern entertaining called for contemporary and expressive dinnerware. In 1954, two California-based manufacturers introduced a selection of progressive earthenware lines. The quintessentially modern Starburst design was a transfer-printed pattern created to decorate George James’ (1921–2003) futuristic line of Eclipse dinnerware for Franciscan. Around the same time, Metlox added the California Mobile series to their Poppytrail earthenware. Designed by Frank Irwin (1922–2002), California Mobile was a decal pattern applied to Metlox’ Freeform range of sculpturally squared plates and boomerang-shaped dishes.

This 1951 Gorham Sterling advertisement from Ladies’ Home Journal is a perfect snapshot of mid-century holiday marketing—elegant, aspirational, and beautifully illustrated. Set against a festive green backdrop with white sparkles and draped greenery, the ad showcases nine different sterling silver fork patterns, each meticulously drawn to highlight the craftsmanship Gorham was known for. From the ornate curves of “King Edward” and “Melrose” to the cleaner, modern lines of “Old French” and “Etruscan,” the layout celebrates variety while reinforcing the idea of silver as a timeless Christmas gift. The typography is equally evocative, with warm holiday messaging promising that “giving or getting, you’ll be proud—it’s Gorham Sterling.” At the bottom, the copy emphasizes tradition, quality, and accessibility, capturing an era when fine flatware symbolized good taste, stability, and family rituals.

Damn if these AI generated images aren't getting better. Popped this prompt into Google's ImageFX and have a SF pulp book cover!

The prompt: A low angle of a landscape of the moon as if the camera was there. Very stark lighting, with strong shadows cast over the craters and mountains in the background. Stylized as a 1950's pulp novel cover. A brushed silver rocket ship stands in the foreground. A very large lunar mining colony is in the middle ground. A tracked capsul-shaped rover is returning to the colony from the ship. Spacesuited figures are near the bottom of the ship.

This amazing vintage table fan, model Progress W3, brings the style of the 1950s right into your home! The stunning turquoise color and aluminum housing are iconic of that era. We have meticulously refurbished the fan. Thanks to the flexible rubber blades, there's no risk of injury even if you accidentally touch them – our boss personally tested this. The fan is entirely original, including the cable and switch, making it a true collector's item. The well-preserved blades are a rare find in these models. A real gem for collectors and design enthusiasts!

Dieser fantastische Vintage-Tischventilator, Modell Progress W3, bringt den Stil der 50er Jahre direkt in Ihr Zuhause! Die wunderschöne türkise Farbe und das Aluminiumgehäuse sind typisch für diese Ära. Wir haben den Ventilator sorgfältig generalüberholt. Dank der flexiblen Gummiflügel besteht keine Verletzungsgefahr, selbst wenn man versehentlich mit der Hand hineingerät – das hat unser Chef persönlich getestet. Der Ventilator ist vollständig original, inklusive des Kabels und des Schalters, was ihn zu einem wahren Sammlerstück macht. Die gut erhaltenen Flügel sind bei diesen Modellen eine Seltenheit. Ein echtes Highlight für Sammler und Designliebhaber!

Me: Those videos produced by "generative AI" are terrible and bland.

Also Me: THIS ONE, however, shows active decision making involvement by human/s in the narration.

Went to Elsie's 50s Diner outside of Owen Sound while visiting the inlaws, and I must say it was a highlight of the trip. If you are ever in the area, you must go.
