The real Liz & Dick, circa 1963.

And check out Mr. Blackwell – at that time a successful fashion designer, later to be known for his Worst Dressed Lists.

Payphone # ~~~>>> 100 !!!

My 100th Payphone!!!

In July of 2011 I began photographing the Communication Relics I observed in and around my home in Los Angeles & beyond.  I am pleased to say that on November 13th, 2012 I shot my 100th jacked up Payphone!  If you knew me, you’d understand how appropriate it is that the 100th phone just so happened to be the Hippie Dippie Relic ; ))) 

Thanks to Daniel for being there to share the moment & for all the love & support he’s given me in this artistic endeavor! 

To be continued…..

Many years later I look at this & think, how & why was Lee Harvey Oswald allowed to be shot???

Hmm, questionable…

But, just so long as we keep smoking, driving & watching TV we won’t have to worry about such things : )))

“NIXON’S PRIME GOAL IS MANAGEMENT.”

That didn’t work out too well for him.

Harrowing images from Vietnam bookended by car & cigarette ads – ah, Life.
