Carson Time Capsule... Thursday, July 2

In the capsule today…

We find "The Graduate” starring Dustin Hoffman. Dustin did not impress the film producers initially. At a first meeting Dustin was mistaken for "one of the messenger boys" and not the lead actor.

We find a new sandwich from McDonald's. Two names were tried… the Aristocrat, and then the Blue Ribbon Burger… before they found a name that stuck. The "Big Mac" sold nationally for 45 cents.

And we find a song on the radio by The Turtles. Despite what the title implies, songwriter Gary Bonner says the tune is actually about unrequited love.

What is the year? (answer below).

The year... 1967!
