I did a search a while back and did 50s vs 1950s and found that more results showed up with 50s. So I started using shorter year references in titles and used full year reference in description.

Wow Jody..... great minds think alike! I did hit the local Goodwill (boy I wish I could get those crowds into MY store!!!) and saw a flow-y dress......... in a red print!!!.....that I grabbed for 8.99. It could work for "the day" but was thinking something just a little more "umph"...
