Classic/Vintage Oklahoma City Photos: Memories from the '50's, '60's, '70's and '80's

by Judie Schwerdtfeger

Whether you're a baby boomer or senior citizen (I meant "slightly more mature" Oklahoman) you probably have some great memories of growing up in Oklahoma City and elsewhere across the area. I thought I'd put together a collection of Oklahoma City photographs showcasing landmarks and fun spots that people who grew up in the 1950's and 1960's may enjoy.

And folks in their 40's - who came of age in the '70's and '80's - here are a couple for you, too.

Feel free to share this page on your Facebook or other pages, and if you have any photos you'd like to share, post them to my Facebook page here or email them to me. I'd love to include them in another blog post like this I'll do in the future.
