No. 26: KING OF “LOUNGE”

Here’s a little blast of summer just before the dog days of winter really take hold.

Last June I found a vintage 35mm slide viewer at a yard sale still in its original box. Also crammed in the box were three collections of slides dating from 1967 to 71. The star of the slideshow was most definitely this guy. Almost always photographed in his signature white cap and shades the man epitomizes ease and leisure. No mowing the lawn, washing the car or pulling weeds for this cat.
