We had Borden's milk in New Orleans and there was even an Elsie cow back when I was growing up. And my dad always drove an Oldsmobile. Tang might still be around (somewhere). And although I never smoked, I do remember those cigarette brands. So many of the little jingles that went with a particular ad stuck in our heads as children... and remain there now.Rianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09472421271620543536noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-626594980028435818.post-85272396176607930742017-09-05T11:56:37.048-04:002017-09-05T11:56:37.048-04:00Some of the brand names you mentioned I don't ...Some of the brand names you mentioned I don't remember at all.

There were so very many companies making airplanes "in the olden days". One of my retirement checks comes from Northrup (for whom I never worked), the other from Textron (who bought Cessna from General Dynamics a few years before I retired). Although I worked for Boeing a couple of times, I can't tell you how many other aircraft companies they've subsumed.<br /><br />The USA isn't the only place where brands disappear. Do you remember Datsun cars? The brand is now Nissan.<br /><br />Cop CarAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
