Back-to-back articles on ’50s records? (6)
I believe the answer is:
annals
'records?' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
I don't understand the rest of the clue.
(Other definitions for annals that I've seen before include "History of events year by year" , "Chronological records, yearbooks" , "Chronicles" , "Archives" , "Historical records" .)
