Crowds line Colorado blvd for the most famous and most photographed parade in the world. The Grand Marshall proves wearing brown in a parade is quite fine if you don’t want to be noticed. Far more eye catching than he are the pointed lines of his chauffer driven, rosebud-studded 1957 Lincoln Première Convertible, the shimmering […]
Clearly somebody needs help! They didn’t measure the how high the ceiling was!
This slide was marked “4000 ornaments, 1000 lights, 350 birds; 16 trees to make this one and Mr. and Mrs. Gano Senter’s famous Christmas tree.” With all this info I thought perhaps I could Google the name and find out about this “famous […]
This slide isn’t about the flocked tabletop tree hung with tinsel and pointy pale pink ornaments that match the curtains. Or the mess of gifts both wrapped an unwrapped, including an ice-o-mat and that very odd shaped gift doing a balancing act in the corner. This slide is about the guy wearing lipstick […]
Hot Wheels, a 5-speed Schwinn bicycle, two Hobie skateboards, striped bell bottom pants, tinker toys, a slip ‘n slide, an aquarium, and a brown bean bag chair are a few of the things that I remember getting for Christmas growing up. I never got a pair of roller skates but some little kid did and […]
This is thanksgiving casual. A single shocking pink taper burns in the center of a picnic table spread with newspaper. The man on the right, sporting his work clothes, ponders the moment. His Budweiser beer is near. The other guy picks something out of his teeth and has a nice slice of what looks […]
This slide was marked “field trip, 1959.” I don’t now where they’re going on their school bus, but I know where I’m going on mine, next SUNDAY, NOV 23RD, I’m giving a tour of downtown Los Angeles. And you may come along!
On this amazing, eye opening, urban-adventure-extravaganza of the highest order you’ll rediscover […]
The Space Needle is the ultimate architectural icon of the Space Age. The flying saucer shaped restaurant, cocktail lounge and observation deck combo were built to be the icon, centerpiece and crowning touch of the 21st century-themed 1962 Seattle World’s Fair. Today it is one of the most recognizable buildings in a world. What the […]
These woman all work in the Whittler High School cafeteria. The jailbird, the cowgirl, the angel, the Nordic princess on her way to a kabuki festival, smoking a corn cob pipe, and Tom Cruise in Top Gun. Together they sit on and before a shapely sofa upholstered in a deep turquoise fabric sparkling with […]
Dirty titty-pink carpet and spindly split-leaf philodendrons are upstaged by misplaced white plastic geraniums and twin Nobles joined at the tuxedo. I always enjoy seeing people dressed alike in slides and, of course anything to do with Shiners, but these two guys are, in no uncertain terms, taking it to a whole new level. […]
