ASMR Vintage Catalogue Flip Through - (page turning and crinkle notebook, whisper)

Published 2021-12-16
Tonight we are sitting next to the tree and flipping through this 1970's vintage Eaton's catalogue and making our wish list for Santa, in a crinkle notebook with a soft whisper voice! I have SO many fond memories of looking through catalogues when I was little and daydreaming about what I'd love to maybe receive as a gift 😭 Sometimes I would even cut up catalogues and scrapbook on separate scrap paper to keep track of my little dream lists. It felt so nostalgic to flip through this catalogue and day dream about my favourite picks once again, I hope you enjoy it too :)
Also a big thank you to my dad who hunted down this catalogue for me, the love of vintage definitely runs in the family.

  • Oh my god, my mom has held on to this exact catalogue since 1975. Seeing that cover felt like being smacked in the face!! I used to leaf through it ALL the time as a kid; such a fantastic view into the past. Can't wait to see what you think! :)

    I don’t usually comment on your videos, but this is one of the rare occurrences where I’m getting nostalgia from an ASMR video. My mom—not just on holidays— whenever she was bored would always read magazines and newspapers at the dining room table, flipping through them, cutting out pictures/articles/comic strips, gluing them into a binder full of blank pages, highlighting words, and writing down recipes to eventually try out the next time she makes dinner. As a kid I always felt peaceful whenever I heard it, even when I played video games in the other room on the weekends.

    This brings back so many memories. In 1975 I was 14 years old and I wanted a maxi dress or bell bottoms so badly. My sister and I both got our first pair of bell bottoms that Christmas and I was so excited to wear them to school after the holidays. Good times!

    I was so curious about the pants being $13.25 so I calculated what that would be today and it's $68.45. I work at a women's retail shop and we have very similar pants for around $68.45 so I thought that was interesting!!

    In 1975 I was ten years old, and yes, still believed in Santa. Thank you for the beautiful memories. 🥰🥰🥰

    Omg as a Torontonian this is so comforting! My mom worked for Eatons in the late 80s into the 90s and I have many of her hand-me-down sweaters that I cherish that never seem to go out of style so this is so lovely to see! ❤️
  • I remember when I was young my mom would always get one of the magazine catalogs Toys R'Us had in their store and every year I would have a sharpie circling all the things I wanted for Christmas. This video really brought out that childhood nostalgia! 😭 ❤

    it makes me a little sad I never grew up with catalogues like these... they're all so eloquently crafted to show off all the items and really reminds you of the craftsmanship that has gone into creating all of the pieces you see. there's a certain charm to it that I can't really see replicated in online storefronts like amazon, maybe its how home-ly (and a little tacky) the displays are? either way, wonderful video, really loved relaxing to this one while getting my sewing work done :) thanks so much!!

    Absolutely killing me with nostalgia here. My mother worked at Eaton's until the day they closed in 1999. She still has EATON BEAUTY dolls, and so much EATON branded merchandise she is slowly parting ways with. Eaton's just SCREAMS my childhood. Remember going there to buy my first vinyl records and toys as a child. Thank's for this sweet trip down memory lane to much better times!

    !!! Ok I’m going to have to request some kind of roleplay writing out a letter to a pen pal or sweetheart! The writing whilst wording the sentence out loud at 2:07 is so relaxing! ✨ Loving every moment of this so far, and am about to fall asleep! 🥰
  • I graduate tomorrow and I’m finding it hard to sleep because I’m so anxious but this video will be the perfect thing! Thank you x
  • @dalhousiekid
    Reminds me of how excited I was back them picking out clothes from the Sears Christmas catalogue! Those were the days.
  • @Legendofmudkip
    This video is ASMR perfection. Magazine flipping. /Vintage/ magazine flipping. Crinkle paper. Writing sounds. I feel like this is the ultimate gift.
  • @sal_n729
    this is one of the most relaxing videos I've watched in while omg. the book sounds, writing sounds, whispering, all perfect
  • @robertmackey105
    You had the Sears catalog Wish Book. Nothing topped that! Then there was Coley's in the Midwest, the slimmer Western Auto, and of course ,"The Famous Spiegel Catalog Company" (60609). Dizzying array of merch on every page, those letters in boxes, the whole scene takes me back. Just wait 100 years and we'll be pining for Amazon.
  • My mum had one of those exact fashion doll sets when she was a kid!! The ones in the pink boxes! I remember playing with them at my grandparents house with her when I was a little girl! Thank you for the trip down memory lane 😊
  • I love this format, please do more! A Skymall from the 90s/2000s would be fun to look back at.
  • the snow lodge craze of the 70s seems to peak out a bit in this catalogue. this was so amazing to experience. thank you for all of your vintage videos, ALB!
  • @allyson9188
    I love this! I wasn't expecting to spot my dad's stereo set that he's owned forever in the lower left at 38:06. He worked at Eaton's when he was young, so it makes perfect sense that he probably bought it from there. Looks like he might have gotten a good deal on it too lol
  • @blueseaswimmer
    I love this video so much I keep coming back maybe for this holiday season if you could get your hands on another catalog, would love another one of these
