The original book, and first adaptation flashes between the members of the Loser's Club confronting Pennywise as children in 1950's Derry, and 'present time' as adults; approximately thirty years later, when the entity reawakens/resurfaces. The original novel was published in 1986, and the mini-series aired in 1990.
In the upcoming film, the backdrop for the Loser's Club's childhood confrontations with the clown is 1980's Derry. Make of that what you will.
