Actually that would be the 1950's to the early 1960's as all 23 pictures in the series show. Of course Der Speigel never misses a chance to make the US look as bad as possible right?

That naivety which was pretty much eliminated by the early 60's, about the same time that family fallout shelters lost popularity. Like Platapus I remember Air Raid drills in school but by the mid 60's they were pretty much a thing of the past.
