The Music Gift Package was inspired by the rise of music in the 1920s!

The novelist F. Scott Fitzgerald termed the 1920s “the Jazz Age.” With its earth rhythms, fast beat, and improvisational style, jazz symbolized the decade’s spirit of liberation. Jazz music influenced fashion, dances, accepted moral standards, youth culture, and race relations. Two appliances – the phonograph and radio – made popular music more accessible than ever before. The 1920s saw the record player enter American life in full force. Piano sales sagged as phonograph production rose from just 190,000 in 1923 to 5 million in 1929. The popularity of jazz, blues, and “hillbilly” music fueled the phonograph boom. The Music Gift Package was inspired by the rise of music in the 1920s! included in this package is:

The Movie Gift Package was inspired by the film industry in the 1920s!

Films blossomed in the 1920s, expanding upon the foundations of film from earlier years. At the start of the decade, most US film production occurred in or near Hollywood on the West Coast, although some films were still being made in New Jersey and in Astoria on Long Island (Paramount). By the mid-20s, movies were big business (with a capital investment totaling over $2 billion), with some theatres offering double features. By the end of the decade, there were 20 Hollywood studios, and the demand for films was greater than ever. Most people are unaware that the greatest output of feature films in the US occurred in the 1920s and 1930s (averaging about 800 film releases in a year). Nowadays, it is remarkable when production exceeds 500 films in a year. The Movie Gift Package was inspired by the booming film industry! Included in this package is:

The Car Gift Package was inspired by the auto industry in the 1920s!

The automobile was first invented and perfected in Germany and France in the late 1800s. However, Americans quickly came to dominate the automotive industry in the first half of the twentieth century. Henry Ford innovated mass-production techniques that became standard, and Ford, General Motors, and Chrysler emerged as the “Big Three” auto companies by the 1920s. Cars became a major source of freedom and adventure as well as travel. They greatly altered the standard of living, the social patterns of the day, and urban planning. In addition, the rise of cars led to the creation of new leisure activities and businesses. The Car Gift Package was inspired by Ford’s milestone vehicle innovation in the 1920s!
