1955 was really the only "throw away" year in exsistence. Nothing much happened. People went to see movies at the local theater and the first TV shows were starting to be produced. Other than that. Nothing else happened in 1955. Good Luck ! :)

Admittedly something did happen, but as I wasn't even thought of then I couldn't tell you. Why don't you ask your mum?
