Minnesota's Greatest Generation

David & Linda Cameron with "Duffy", Christmas, 1961

"Two kids, a dog, and a station wagon" became a common description of the "typical" American family of the 1950s and 1960s. The Cameron family had the kids and the dog, but no station wagon.

This photograph of David, Linda, and "Duffy", the family dog, appeared on the Cameron's 1961 Christmas card.
