My grandmother, who was a Depression-era pack rat, kept her old Maytag wringer-washer until she died in 1998. That woman never threw anything away. 😅. Seeing that washer brought back old memories. She kept it next to her modern electric washer and dryer. I know occasionally she would still use it in the summer in the 1990s, hanging the clothes on a line in the backyard with clothes pins. I think that's why I enjoy your channel so much, Kevin. It reminds me of my grandmother. You would have loved her house. She kept just about everything she ever bought from about 1935 to 1998. Nothing went to the curb. 😅😅

Hi russbear! I think so many people of your grandmother's generation kept things forever because of growing up during the Depression. I love that she held on to her wringer washer after getting an automatic. I knew someone who did the same thing and just used the wringer to wash rags! Glad the videos remind you of your grandmother! Thanks!

This is SO CUTE! The typewriters give such a happy and charming look to the display. For future consideration, to incorporate typewriters as "food related", you could add some typed recipe cards or sheets, and maybe pair them up with some cookbooks! The seventies living room looks really cozy. Looks like a great place to read books and put your feet up! I remember the homes of many relatives who had orange, mustard yellow, and dark green velour chairs and couches... until the late 90s 😂 I have one of those orange juice glass pitchers at home, which was picked up at a thrift store many years ago. Thank goodness for vintage things, because modern home goods simply don't have the same charm or flair. Thanks for this incredible video Kevin! I really enjoyed it. Fawn 😊

Hi Kevin! Once again your windows look fabulous and bring back such great memories! That ‘70s living room is right out of my childhood home including the Matador pictures and the ashtray. Love it! And we need to bring back punch! When I was a child, every birthday party and holiday some kind of punch drink was served out of a punch bowl. It was special, something we didn’t have on a regular day. I especially remember the sherbet punch. Oh, and my Grandfather owned a typewriter sales and repair shop for many years. Yep, these windows really sparked some memories, thanks!😊🥰

My Granny used spray starch so much that the smell of it still reminds me of her. She was a supervisor at Manhattan Shirt Factory and could iron like a total pro that she was and she could really iron a shirt in no time flat. She had a Casco iron like the one at the top of your display. The entire top opened up to pour in the water. I also have a typewriter collection, mostly IBMs. Very heavy and well-made. We never had a console model of anything when I was growing up, but I made up for it by collecting more console radios than I could count. Thanks for showing us your displays.

Hi Kevin. It’s always exciting to see a new post from the Cavalcade! Your window displays are so creative and artful. I love the “you are just my type” with the typewriters. They are all very interesting and engaging. It’s so wonderful that you are using your collection to give the younger generation a glimpse of the designs of the past, and the tools and objects that got us into the present day. I was just becoming comfortable with the fact that one human could manage a full-time job and running a KZitem channel with an ever changing collection. And now I learn you have two KZitem channels! And you also find time to create inventory catalogs of your existing collection when you’re not out finding new pieces. You set a very high bar and inspire me to push myself to accomplish more! Your cooking demonstrations have opened an entire new door for me, making vintage recipes a go to now! Thank you, thank you, for all that you do!
