We had USENET and posts like this. It's from 99 but is representative of the type of stuff that occurred even in the late 70s.

Without fanfare, I give you, Dogs in Elk.

Why, when I was a kid, we wrote letters and stuck 3-cent stamps on them . . . or 2-cent ones for postcards.

Amazing how far a horse can go on 2 cents. =)
