The Limbo Connection's photos with the keyword: bus ticket

Masumi de Coty was a fragrance launched in 1967. The bus ticket from a journey on 29th October, 1970, is an addition which was not part of the advertising campaign.

A simple collage comprising a bus ticket issued during 1970 which I discovered in a secondhand book where it had been doing service as a bookmark; and part of a page from a 'Nova' magazine of the same period.

One last throw of the dice with ipernity, the website that is too good to survive in a world which prefers Piccadilly Circus to Kurt Schwitters. This crude collage was made from two separate photographs which appeared side by side in my photo stream on flickr. Both date from 1970. The bus ticket I found in a book from a charity shop. The black and white photograph of a girl was part of a stylish advertisement for a scent called Masumi by Coty. I saw it in an old Nova magazine. I simply photographed the computer screen to unite the two pictures, and processed the result in Lightroom. Nikon D2Xs and Tamron SP AF 17-50mm f/2.8 XR Di II LD Aspherical (IF) Model A16N.

Masumi de Coty was in an advertisement in a magazine from 1970. The advert was much bigger than this detail, and it lacked a contemporaneous bus ticket. In my view, that was an unpardonable omission on the part of the Coty people, and I am glad to have had the opportunity to put matters right.
