Hi Greg, I did grow up in the 50's, and yes indeed, there were fuzzy dice hanging from rear view mirrors. Raccoon and Fox tails go back way earlier than that, back to the 20's and "Twenty-Three Skidoo." I think they fell from popularity by the 50's, much to the relief both both foxes and raccoons.

How much of the "car culture" attributed to the 50's is real and how much is media? I.E. Did teens in the 50's really hang fuzzy dice from the mirror and raccoon tales from the antenna? Having not grown up in the 50's, I don't know what the answer is.
