Mata Hari was executed for being a spy by a French firing squad on Oct. 15, 1917.


She refused a blindfold and blew a kiss to the men taking her life.

She wasn’t much a spy, really no reason to execute her.

Killed the leopard with his bare hands. Total bad ass.

“When you photograph people in color, you photograph their clothes. But when you photograph people in Black and white, you photograph their souls!” - Photographer Ted Grant.

Still, I like these photographs.

Diana looks like Clint just said, “When you get tired of that stiff necked putz of a husband give me a call”.

Great photo of the Navratil boys of Titanic fame. Their father was kidnapping them in a custody battle with their mother in France.

Some observations..

Isn’t it funny how the tallest guy in Europe is wearing a super tall hat?

I have always suspected Lawrence of Arabia was gay... this proves it.

The dude that killed the leopard.... that’s a hard man.

Oscar Wilde was a genius.

I never understood why Liz Taylor was considered a beauty until that photo. Drop-dead gorgeous, sensual, relaxed, honest. Wow.

Note that Winston Churchill’s photos taken in different centuries. All these pics are very cool.

Thank you so much for these fabulous photos.

So much to see and to learn. Charlie Chaplin looked wonderful in color, loaded with personality. And on and on.
