Craig Wooten, aka Pittsburgh Dad, reads from the 1984 JC Penney catalog for a special Christmas treat for the kids.
Of all the Christmas stories, this one could bring back a flood of memories for some.
Pittsburgh Dad, played by Curt Wootton, took viewers back to the ’80s in a holiday episode of the YouTube series.
In the video posted Tuesday, he goes through the pages of the 1984 edition of JC Penney Christmas catalog.
“I can’t think of nothing more representative of the season than this,” Wootton says while in character, revealing the catalog.
The video runs about three and half minutes and looks at retro toys and clothes from decades ago, with Pittsburgh Dad weighing in on karate outfits, a toy “Knight Rider” car and more.
