Allee Willis’ Kitsch O’ The Day – Super Bowl Sunday 1950’s Ponytail Cheerleader Looseleaf
Ponytail was one of the first if not THE first ubiquitous teenage girl brands. In the age of Elvis Presley, when such creatures felt freedom unlike any generations previous, Ponytail couldn’t crank out matching products fast enough – eyeglass cases, wallets, diaries, treasure boxes, 45s record cases, Deskette desk sets - all in the signature Ponytail baby blue or powder pink leatherette.
I’m going to several Super Bowl parties today…
… and will be carrying my Ponytail assistant holding my notes and sketches as the ball I need to keep my eye on are my impending writing deadlines which I shall attend to with the other eye while the Saints and Colts duke it out.
This 2-ring binder measures a sporting 11″ x 15″ and features two pockets and a fabric identification label.

I really like this item. I think it’s retro classy rather than kitsch. Lovely!

In my book retro classy IS kitsch!

I had a pink ponytail desk thingy. I loved it. I wanted to have a real hair ponytail of my own, but my curly hair grew up, not down. I used to stick a sock through the hats they made for ponytails so I couls pretend.
I still love this motif.
Good one Allee, and ever so practical.
