Anniversaries - Random Trivia Questions

In honor of my parents' 45th anniversary (and not too long after my wife and my tenth anniversary), this week's quiz is all about celebrating anniversaries. Emily Post's 1922 book Etiquette in Society, in Business, in Politics and at Home formed the basis for the traditional wedding anniversary gifts (1, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 50 and 75 years), while the modern anniversary gifts seem to be the creation of the retail industry. Do you know what you should be shopping for?
