One thing I noticed, that's almost like a pattern in 50's photos is that there's a "casual" presence of TV sets in family pictures...I mean, to have a TV was a big thing in those days, so, when people took pictures of relatives in the living room the people who were to be photographed managed to be near the TV set...in an unconcious way of showing to everybody that they had TV in their house. I've seen a 1954 photo of a middle aged couple, they were very well dressed, and the TV set was clearly visible in the shot.
