Ah, to go back to Cape May, New Jersey in the 1940s to see what life was like. If only we had a working Delorian time machine. 

1941. FDR was President of the United States. It was the year Pearl Harbor was attacked. Captain America first made an appearance in comic books. Orson Wells released Citizen Kane.
