60 years on these old "how to live" films seem weird and out of place for today but after WWII (like I remember) a "new order" had cast itself onto our landscape. People were moving off the farms and into the cities & factory towns and those hicks from the sticks needed to learn how to live in among cityfolk!

Colonel Klink from 'Hogan's Heroes'. Not a close enough shot to be sure though.
