Very nice, indeed.
Tom Palumbo's pics of 1962 Paris come very close to my imaginery ideal "very early Mod" world of style..filled with bars , cool cats, cool women, lush life...wet asphalt at night, lit by bar and club signs...that's what our ancestors must have had in mind when they climbed off their trees and ventured in the great wide open, still insecure on those two sabre legs. Good bye, dear old baobab.
Just to get a repp..

Kerouac has that angel-headed-hipster/holy-goof look - I've not seen that before, only read of it.
