    Ummm, I know this is supposed to take place in the 60s, but as a kid in the 70s that was my weekly allowance. So I know how he feels!

    First it was Lincoln, then Jefferson, and FDR. Now he’s up to Washington. Progress for Red.

    Today is my fifty-sixth birthday. I may have been born in the time when this nostalgic strip is set or shortly before it. The earliest dating for a strip that I know is 1967 and the latest dating for a strip that I know is 1975. Brian Basset was born in November 1958 so he turned nine in November 1967 and seventeen in November 1975. Maybe Red was a young-looking sixteen year old in the strip set in 1975.

    It should have been a quarter AND 2 milky bones.

    Back in the 60’s that was at least two bottles of soda pop plus deposit.

    My older brother wouldn’t offer me a quarter; he’d offer me a chance to live. LOL

    Red, you should have held out for a Franklin at least or a new Kennedy.

    I always thought big brothers only had to rely on size disparity to get their way

    I believe this strip is set in the ’60s. A quarter went a long way for a kid back then!

    I remember when Sea-Tac Airport had black and white, coin-operated antenna TVs. A quarter might have been expensive for that back then.

    I yearn for the time that .25 cents was a lot of money to a kid.
