BOOMER QUIZ: ICONIC IMAGES

("Angela Davis" by loaded hips)

Here's the final installment of my nine-part series of quizzes about the Baby Boomer era, right after the fold. I'm going out with a bang.

There will be no grading system for these quizzes, I created them just for the fun of it. Play it with your friends. The answers will be immediately available in case you're not so good with delayed gratification (as they claim about us).

Feel free to share, but give me credit, dammit. Copyright 2008 Maggie Jochild.
