Anyone remember wearing a St Christopher in the '50s?

Recommended Posts

Back in the '50s, it was fashionable for young men to wear a St Christopher medallion around their necks. I did. Some wore a crucifix instead. The wearing of these had no religious significance. Anyone else remember wearing one?

I once went into a jewellers in Sydney to buy a crucifix for my mum. The bloke behind the counter asked me if I wanted a plain one or one with a little fella on it. :)

Would the 'little fella' have been Bobby Craig ?

Wore one in the sixties. I can't remember why, can't remember what happened to it either.
