Murray worked with renowned photographers such as David Bailey, Richard Avedon, Irving Penn, and Bert Stern. One of her most iconic appearances was in Bailey’s 1965 “Box of Pin-Ups” series, which featured the most celebrated cultural figures of the time. Her modeling style was classic yet modern—marked by minimalism, emotion, and a strong visual presence.

Later in life, Murray returned to her passion for art and moved to the United States, where she pursued painting full-time. Though less publicly known today, she remains an enduring figure of 1960s fashion, admired for both her timeless beauty and artistic spirit. Take a look at these fabulous photos to see portraits of a young Sue Murray in the 1960s.

The Tourist featured the distinctive dos-a-dos seating arrangement, with passengers sitting back-to-back in opposite directions. The vehicle displayed a gloss black wooden body complemented by deep red trim and running gear, with black button-tufted leather upholstery. The rear seat faced aft, as the body style implies, while steering was accomplished via a center tiller with the driver positioned on the right side. Power came from a 1-cylinder, 7-hp engine, typical of the experimental period when manufacturers were still determining optimal power sources and configurations.

Only three examples of this early American automobile are known to survive today, making it an extremely rare representative of early automotive history. Below is a collection of amazing photos of the 1902 Century Tourist Dos-A-Dos.

In the film, Schwarzenegger stars as Colonel John Matrix, a retired elite special forces operative with a no-nonsense attitude and unmatched combat skills. The film is a quintessential 1980s action flick, directed by Mark L. Lester, and it helped solidify Schwarzenegger’s status as a top-tier action star after his success in The Terminator (1984).

At just 19 years old, Bush achieved massive success with her debut single “Wuthering Heights” in 1978. It topped the UK singles chart for four weeks, making her the first female artist to achieve a UK number one with a fully self-written song. This established her as an immediate star.

Her debut studio album, The Kick Inside, released the same year, peaked at number three on the UK Albums Chart and sold over a million copies in the UK alone. It featured songs she had written from as young as 13, showcasing her early prodigious talent.

Capitalizing on the success of The Kick Inside, EMI persuaded Bush to quickly record a follow-up, Lionheart, released later in 1978. While commercially successful, reaching number six in the UK, Bush later expressed dissatisfaction with it, feeling it was rushed.

Their success was the result of years of experimentation, engineering skill, and an innovative approach to flight control. Unlike many of their contemporaries, the Wrights focused on how to control an aircraft in flight, leading to their breakthrough with three-axis control—still a fundamental principle in modern aviation.

Beyond their technical achievements, the Wright brothers’ determination and hands-on experimentation laid the foundation for the aviation industry. Their work transformed transportation and helped usher in the modern age of flight. Below is a rare collection of early flight test photos featuring the Wright Brothers in the early 1900s.

Amid economic hardship and rising crime, there was also an undeniable creative pulse, with punk, hip-hop, and street art beginning to take root. These fascinating photos, taken by Nick DeWolf, reflect both the struggles and the spirit of a city on the edge of transformation.

Egon von Eickstedt was a German physical anthropologist who conducted expeditions to India, Ceylon (Sri Lanka), and Burma in the 1920s, specifically between 1926 and 1929. During this time, he took approximately 12,000 photographic images and collected 2,000 objects, focusing on Adivasi (indigenous) communities. His work in India included studies in South India, and specifically Kerala, where he documented and photographed indigenous people, including Dalit communities. He was particularly interested in what he termed “primitive peoples” and their cultural practices.

Eickstedt’s research was driven by his theories on racial classification, and he aimed to validate his anthropological theories through measuring and photographing India’s indigenous population. He later published his findings in works such as “Rassenkunde und Rassengeschichte der Menschheit” (Ethnology and the Race History of Mankind), where he classified human populations into various “races” and types. His photographs and collected artifacts were intended to support his “racial history of mankind” theories.

It is important to note that Eickstedt’s anthropological work is viewed through the lens of racial anthropology prevalent in his time, and he later became a leading racial theorist in Nazi Germany. His photographic collection, while extensive, is embedded in a colonial and racial context, reflecting asymmetric power relations between the anthropologist and the subjects.

Born in 1946 in Sussex, England, Bastedo gained international recognition not only for her acting but also for her intelligence and elegance. Beyond her screen career, she was a passionate advocate for animal rights and founded the Alexandra Bastedo Champions Animal Sanctuary, where she cared for hundreds of animals in need.

Bastedo’s graceful presence on screen and her compassionate work off-screen left a lasting impression. She passed away in 2014, but she remains a beloved figure in both entertainment and humanitarian circles. Take a look at these gorgeous photos to see portraits of a young Alexandra Bastedo in the 1960s.
