Google 1960

c. 1960 indeed!

 

Hate to be picky, but there was no zip code in 1960 .

I guess Google has always been ahead of the times though .

 

Yeah, back in those days you just used the city or town name along with the state name. If you lived in a bigger city you added a zone code. In those days our address appeared along with "Cincinnati 41, Ohio" in the address. These days the zip codes (and now "zip+4") have replaced the old codes. And to think, I can still remember those days...guess I'm telling on myself, huh?

 

I remember my first address in Huntsville, AL
