1952 ... had to build our own!




1955 ... Miss A-bomb!


 ... speaking of nuclear weapons and sexual obsession. Here we have a better than average print of 'Miss A-bomb' 1955 being crowned at a Vegas hotel pool. I have a hunch that any of the hotels could set you up with a model in 15 mins. who could be your 'Miss whatever'. I think Sarge up there may have been the sculptor. Women from that era with that particular look always remind me of someone's mom- yikes!




... that's not right!


...usually this Blog is strictly a 'G' rated affair. The end of the world should be fun the whole family can enjoy! But I just couldn't resist this charming bondage take on an old polyethylene radiation (dust) suit. Imagine what the neighbors think!


1960 ... ain't nothing but!

1952 ... never ordered!


... when I saw a B-36 on the tarmac at the Air Force Museum in the late 60's it was clear that here was technology pushed right up to, and a little beyond,  reasonable limits. The idea of sweeping the wings and putting all jets on it is a bit wacky!



1957 ... high, high, high!



... for all you Anglophiles; here's the whole movie! (it's a bit of a snorer)



... kick in the pants!
