And at the other end of the spectrum, a classic gem about sex and what comes after. Considered pretty risque back in the day, and sooooo sweetly performed.

Back to some space history neepery, hmm? I've previously spoken of the 1964 World's Fair in New York City as a last gasp of 20th century techno-optimism, and this is a little bit more from it. It's art of the Hall of Science's "movie hall", showing a Martin Marietta station and spaceship. It was printed in the Souvenir Book of the fair.

An item sold a while back by a New York City-area dealer: a model Sears swimming pool in a case dated to the Sixties. "Made by Monte Displays of Great Neck, NY, likely for marketing in Long Island communities such as Levittown".

Les Bicyclettes de Belsize est un court métrage musical (1965 25m Judy Huxtable, Anthony May) qui était montré avec un film d'epouvante Twisted Nerve. Malgré le titre, il a été enregistré à Hampsted Village à Londres et les dialogues sont en anglais. Un conte simple. Un garçon qui: voit une belle fille sur un panneau d'affichage; tombe amoreaux; fait du vélo; la rencont; l'embrasse. Fin.

Bien que j’évite normalement les films musicaux, j’ai trouvé le film charmant et joyeux.

Les Bicyclettes de Belsize is a short musical film (1965 25m starring Judy Huxtable, Anthony May), which was shown together with a horror film Twisted Nerve. Despite the title, it was filmed in Hampstead Village London and the dialogue is in English. A simple tale of a boy who: sees a girl on a billboard; falls in love with her; cycles around; meets the girl; kisses. The end.

Although I normally avoid musicals, I found the film charming and a delight to watch.

I wasn’t even really sure what this one was. I guess I started to think I bought it just because it was a cool picture disk but it’s actually got some interesting numbers, pretty much international cocktail kitch with enough voodoo vibes and vibrato to warrant a place on the shelf.

📰 | Thousands are expected to gather in DC today to mark the 60th anniversary of the August 28, 1963 March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom.

@washingtonpost adds to the oral history of that day and the Movement by interviewing some of those, among the 250,000 souls, who were on the National Mall that day.
