The minimum wage at the time. I have no idea what that was. The year was 1967.

The minimum wage at the time was $1.40 per hour ($9.80 in 2013 dollars).

The very next year, in 1968, the minimum wage was increased to $1.60 per hour; in 2013 dollars this is $10.75 an hour and adjusted for inflation it was the highest minimum wage rate the US ever had.
