Sorry, Millennials, only Boomers can identify all these midcentury things in Tom and Jerry cartoons
These classic shorts are full of household objects from the Fifties and Sixties.
Because of the timeless nature of classic cartoons, especially Tom and Jerry shorts which don’t use much dialogue, it’s easy to forget when they were first released. The objects used in certain cartoons give clues — telephones usually have dials and cars sometimes look straight out of The Waltons.
But far from being a downside, these background elements only add to the nostalgic nature of these animated delights. We’ve gathered objects seen in classic Tom and Jerry cartoons that are right out of the 1940s, '50s and '60s. Can you tell what each thing is?

That’s a *lavender* refrigerator door, not white.
It’s construction “site”, not sight.
That’s a newspaper stand with a slot for beverages 🙄.
