In 1970, students in a fifth-grade class at Hawthorne School in Beverly Hills were assigned to write a letter to someone they admired, asking them “What makes a good citizen?" So 10yr old Joel Lipton wrote to Peanuts cartoonist Charles M. Schulz. Joel got a reply.

Despite being a famous Hollywood star if you want to know what sort of person DAVID NIVEN was, the largest wreath at his funeral was from the Porters at Heathrow Airport. It read: “To the finest gentleman who ever walked through these halls. He made a Porter feel like a King.”

Try not to get too upset over this sports/sci-fi mashup, this is all in good fun.

📸 : Lewis Wickes Hine - Mechanic and Steam Pump, 1921 gelatin silver print 9-5/8 × 7 in | 24.5 x 17.8 cm Iconic photo of a mechanic in a Pennsylvania power plant celebrates the worker as a noble contributor to industry. Indisputably one of the most seminal American images of the 20th century. 👇👇

In this photographic masterwork, a Pennsylvania Railroad mechanic is carefully positioned within the lines and curves of the steam pump, dramatizing the symbiosis of human and industrial strength. While several similar negatives of this scene were made by Hine at the time, each with slight variations to the mechanic’s pose and to the camera’s angle, the series of variations are collectively regarded as the iconic image, Mechanic and Steam Pump.

The immediately evident ethos behind Hine’s image exemplifies the artist’s recent shift from a harsher documentary style of photography to what he referred to as ‘interpretive photography’. During the 1910s, Hine was a photographer for the National Child Labor Committee (NCLC). His documentation was used by the Committee while lobbying to end child labor and, eventually, this led to the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938, which brought an end to child labor in the United States. Later, during and after the First World War, Hine photographed civilian war refugees in Europe for the Red Cross. It was after this project, around 1919 when he returned from Europe, that Hine decided to no longer engage in ‘negative documentary’ and stopped advertising his work as ‘social photography’, choosing now to officially refer to himself as an ‘interpretive photographer’—note the stamp on the reverse of the print on offer here. This new approach aimed not to overwhelm with criticism or accusations about American labor practices, but rather to celebrate the industrial workers.

GARY OLDMAN as Cary Grant from ‘North By Northwest’ for a photo project whereby Actors posed for a role they always dreamt of playing. (It had to be self-deprecating, ironic, absurd, a bit twisted and kind of like a funny/bad dream take on the movie.) Love it.
