Go Retro Get Smart








Remember them?




 (Agent 86) Maxwell Smart 

with his competent partner 

(Agent 99) Barbara Feldon.




Vintage.





They had quirky ways of 

working smart + effectively.





And they had some rather 

strange + futuristic gadgets 

that helped them do it.

(I LOVED the groovy ‘shoe phone’.)




At the end of the day, 

they had a job to do

AND they got it done.





It wasn’t always 

straight-forward but, 

there was a plan + they 

followed it.




I’m glad we have modern 

day gadgets to make 

our plans easier to follow.





BTW: Don Adams (April 13, 1923 – September 25, 2005) 

was an American actor, comedian + director.

 In his five decades on television, 

he was best known as Maxwell Smart (Agent 86) 

in the television situation comedy Get Smart (1965–70, 1995), 

which he also sometimes directed + wrote. 

Adams won three consecutive Emmy Awards for 

his portrayal of Smart (1967–69). 






What smart new gadget/s 

did "Santa" give you 

this Christmas?




Happy New Year!




I appreciate you + your views,

so let's communicate!
