  1. I'm dying to know what that article, "Your dog is in cruel danger" is about, and what the date on that is.

  4. Raquel Welch takes the prize.
    She has been my idol for years when I was younger.

    Her motto to be Forty, Fit & Firm has always stuck in the back of my mind.

    Even today she is still so beautiful!


    Thanks for the trip down memory lane:)

  26. Hahaha your dog is in cruel danger! Yikes! Oh and I love how using the word "negro" was still PC! Ahhh history! I love this! I love the Frank Sinatra one the "Goodnight and Amen". This is a saweeeet post, Mr. Keith.

  34. Love LIFE magazine, my favourite issue has got to be the one where they featured Edie Sedgwick in 1965

  35. Hey Amy. Thanks. I love Life. That one is a good one. There are so many great covers out there. I want to find more to post than just these.

  36. Frank looks so good on both covers!

    ReplyDelete
  37. I love the "Negro Stars" covers first and the "Farewell Sinatra" second. The former cover could never happen today (the headline I mean). too many people would be up in arms about it since we're such a sensitive nation nowadays.

  38. Hey JFK. Thanks. I love those covers too. I know what you mean. We live in such a politically correct time that people freak out over almost everything.

    ReplyDelete
  39. Awesome assortment of covers! The young(er) Frankie is definitely my fave. That shot almost looks like someone snapped a photo of him while he was singing.

    Thank you so much for all your wonderful comments, Keith. I really hope you're having a marvelous weekend!
    ♥ Jessica

  40. Hey Jessica. Thanks. I'm glad you enjoyed these covers. I do like that one of Sinatra. It does look as if he was singing when the photo was snapped. I'm having a great weekend so far. The family is getting together in a little while for a cookout. Hope you're having an awesome one. Cheers!
