The People History Rekindles Memories with Free 'Year' Posters Capturing
Moments in Time

ELKHORN, Wis., July 13 /PRNewswire/ -- There is perhaps nothing greater than
something that's free and entertaining, and when it's easily available on the
Internet -- even better. The People History (http://www.thepeoplehistory.com),
a website devoted to preserving and presenting facts, memories and social
history, offers a virtual library where users can research tidbits of
historical information at no charge. Given the recessed economy, The People
History's complimentary resources, supported within the gimmick- and
hassle-free website, is a welcome relief to the wallet. Moreover, through a
Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 License, The People History is introducing
yet another free offering -- 50 A4 print-out posters that outline intriguing
facts related to particular years. Ideal for those who enjoy revisiting
memories and for younger generations who are learning history, these posters
are categorized by key years, dating back 75 years.

"People love the wealth of engaging information we've compiled and often use
it for anniversaries, birthdays and reunions to break the ice, jog people's
memories or just have some good laughs," says Stephen Pearson, founder/owner
of The People History. "Now, we're offering these free posters, too, which
provide a printable, visual aid that's packed with facts from a particular
year. Since the recent release of these posters, which are all about sparking
memories of the past, we've received hundreds of comments, thanking us for
making them available."

Each poster includes a synopsis of the featured year, plus key cultural,
historical, economic and social movements. Pictures support the summary, which
is followed by a list of events from that year. The poster mentions famous
birthdays, cost-of-living financials, arts and entertainment highlights, and
even curiosities such as debuts of new technologies, fashion trends, products
and more.

"A great example is the poster from 1959, which features tidbits on gas
prices, new home costs and newsworthy figures that year -- including Fidel
Castro, Buddy Holly, and America's first astronauts -- plus the St. Lawrence
Seaway completion, which linked the Atlantic Ocean to the Great Lakes,"
Pearson says. "The poster also covers popular culture, such as the Barbie Doll
craze and unforgettable Marilyn Monroe, who starred alongside Tony Curtis that
year in 'Some Like It Hot.'"

Another feature of the The People History is "This Day in History," a tool
that enables users to find news headlines from a particular day, as well as
video clips related to that day. Perfect for birthdays or the celebration of a
newborn, This Day in History pays tribute to the most notable facts related to
a special day in a person's life.
