1. A program from the 1955 World Series
2. Pretty Kitty Kelly by Charles Harrison (not sure how it could be played physically though, it was made in the 1920s, unless people had a phonograph)
3. Misirlou by Dick Dale
4. Johnny B. Goode by Chuck Berry
That's pretty much it. I'm not really a big fan of most stuff before the late 70s, so it's not like I could enjoy them that much.

I don't think the 20s were that polite. Maybe in Europe, but not in the United States.

1. 60s Fashion.
2. The Twilight Zone.
3. Theatre being more popular.
4. Old Hollywood-style films to intermix with New Hollywood ones.
5. 60s Fashion.
Otherwise, my tastes are fairly late-20th century.

Well, we may get some special centennial retrospectives on the 1920s in the 2020s, so they may get a bit of a revival, especially if the Trump administration succeeds well.
1. Marilyn Monroe
2. James Dean
3. Captain Video
4. My maternal grandmother who died in 1967 and never had a chance to see her
5. Freeform TV where commercials are plugged on the show itself, is taped live, and the variety show is the most popular
6. Human space exploration with missions that keep going further out into space
7. White gloves on girls/women at formal events
8. Newsreels and Looney Tunes (or other shorts) prior to the start of a movie
9. Silver coins (just make them $1, $2, $5, and $10 coins since fractional currency is pretty meaningless these days)
10. Lesley Gore, Brenda Lee, and Connie Francis having hits on the radio

I would like to bring back Marilyn Monroe and I wonder how would she view the world today compared to before she passed away in 1962.

knowing photographers in 2016, they'd probably would want her to pose nude.
