The story would be dullclichéd evenwithout the voyeuristic thrill that comes with the intimate details: a married German businessman and his married secretary, Margret, have a brief affair from 1969 to 1970. Everything you see here came from a suitcase purchased at an estate auction 30 years after the affair, and its an utterly engrossing collection of artifacts.
Not only did the unnamed businessman photograph the intimate moments before and after sex (including shots of dresses he bought for heron the hanger, then on her, then on the bed), he kept keepsakes, including a lock of hair and an empty birth control blister-pack. The strangest part though is his journal, a series of typed, dated, wholly factual and completely emotionless entriesmore of an impassive record of events than a log of romantic musings. Germans!

These artifacts were made into some sort of art exhibit.
sad.
Not my business and don’t want to know. Why is this important?
Just like how hey documented the systematic killing of jews and others in WW2.....Germans are great records keepers.
The saddest thing is that 1969-1970 is considered “vintage”.
Nice hair Marge!
Indeed! Let us be thankful it didn't involve scheisse.
That smoking is enough to make you gag...........
He said “I’ll love you till I die”,
She told him “You’ll forget in time”
As the years went slowly by,
She still preyed upon his mind
He kept her picture on his wall,
Went half-crazy now and then
He still loved her through it all,
Hoping she’d come back again
Kept some letters by his bed
Dated nineteen sixty-two
He had underlined in red
Every single “I love you”
I went to see him just today,
Oh but I didn’t see no tears
All dressed up to go away,
First time I’d seen him smile in years
He stopped loving her today
They placed a wreath upon his door
And soon they’ll carry him away
He stopped loving her today
< spoken, not sung >
You know, she came to see him one last time
Aww, and we all wondered if she would
And it kept runnin’ through my mind
“This time he’s over her for good”
< singing on>
He stopped loving her today
They placed a wreath upon his door
And soon they’ll carry him away
He stopped loving her today

I dont get zotted.
I don’t even get drunk.
She doesn’t seem to have the look of a lady in love. So she’s bored? Nothing else to do? Guy’s crazy. Who needs it?
getting rid of my old playboys.
Classic sounds more properly descriptive.
She is definitely smoking.
Do you smoke, do you chew? Do you like to hang out with girls who do?
