America’s Unrest Wasn’t Seen Everywhere

Old images from yesteryear often invoke a sense of nostalgia within those who have actually lived to see those days. This is a picture of a Bitner Pontiac dealership in Pasadena, California back in the 1960s. The picture of this quiet car dealership shows a stark contrast to what was going on in the rest of America during that time. Although the scene in Southern California looks rather serene here, keep in mind that the ’60s were a time of social unrest, as many Americans were living through the Civil Rights Movement and were about to experience the onset of the Vietnam War.
