June 1983, event celebrating the Brian Clarke show at Robert Fraser’s Cork Street gallery. Not all the people pictured were at that show (and sorry the print is too blurry to make out!) but in attendance at the Clarke show we’ve got:

Marianne Faithful, Paul McCartney and Linda McCartney, top left, and “Suami La Valle and the Baileys” on the right.

Right under Paul and Linda, we’ve got “Ossie Clark and Nick,” and next to them Sir Mark Palmer

Under Ossie and Nick, it’s Robert Fraser and Chris Jagger, and under Sir Mark, it’s Paul and Brian Clarke

The people under Robert and Chris were at another event. So, under the pic of Paul and Brian we’ve got:

“New look Vicki de Lambray with old look Molly Parkin,” followed by Manolo Blahnik and Jasper Conran, then George Martin and Paul, and then finally Roberto Shorto and Baroness Fiona Von Thyssen

From A Strong, Sweet Smell of Incense. The caption for this says that the publication this clipping came from is unknown.

Chevrolet Corvette S.O. 2151 Prototype, 1954. A one-off GM Styling Department “Proposal Car”  for an abandoned 1955 facelift is to be offered at auction. The Corvette body was restyled to incorporate several new features: a decorative hood scoop, eggcrate front grille, bumper-exit exhaust tips, and a re-styled trunk design. Another element of the new design were the slanted front-fender vents, painted body color on the passenger side and trimmed with chrome on the driver side – giving GM executives two different looks to choose from. The car has undergone an 1,800 hour restoration using  period photographs to ensure that the work was as accurate as possible, including re-creating missing trim pieces.

Quad Cities Rocket

Another one of my earliest railroad images...

This is an eastbound Rock Island Quad Cities Rocket with E8 655 on the point. It was built for the railroad in March of 1952.

The location, of course, is the well known crossing with the ATSF and GM&O at Joliet, Illinois.
