Life magazine
on: November 28, 2015, 07:12:00 PM
Every weekend my partners 86yr old auntie comes for tea. She loves to laugh. For the past couple of weeks I've been finding different things to entertain. Last week it was an old video on my home city of Sheffield. Luckily the VCR was in the loft too. After much cleaning and tape chewing we all sat down to watch.....great stuff.

So today in anticipation of her arrival I went back into my loft to see what I could find....

My loft is like an aladins cave. Most of my stuff from my teenage years still sits wrapped and packed. I could spend hours going through each box.

But today I knew exactly what I was looking for. My collection of Life magazines!! I utterly adore these. They hark back to a period when photojournalism was at its finest. It's difficult to imagine the complexities that these early photographers had to deal with in order to deliver the stunning pictures contained in each and every issue. Just as fascinating are the adverts. If you've never flicked through an issue of Life, then please do so.

What a fantastic era, which we will never see again in our modern digital age.

Stunning!!

I don't claim to know it all, but what I do know is right.
