The Limbo Connection's photos with the keyword: 'Daily Express'

Zenith and Praktica cameras on a copy of the 'Daily Express' from 1968, photographed with a Chinon 55mm f/1.7 lens mounted via an adapter on a Canon EOS 30D digital camera.

A book covered with the small ads page of the 'Evening Standard' of Thursday, April 7th, 1966, with other bits pasted on top: 'river plunge kills seven' from the 'Daily Express' of Tuesday, April 30th, 1968; a sticker of Picasso's 'Buste de Femme au Chapeau', a linocut from 1962 which I dared to modify; a photograph of a girl on a lone peace campaign I once saw when visiting Lacock Abbey, a strange place to make a protest, but a welcome sight nevertheless. All these things have somehow come together with the help of Pritt stick and watercolours. Photographed with a Chinon 55mm f/1.7 lens on a Canon EOS 30D.

Once this was news, glanced at, ignored. Now, it's a long time ago. We don't know those people. They died unnamed and unlamented by newspaper readers in England who were keener to learn the page on which the television programmes appeared. Google reveals nothing about this tragedy: it predates the internet and its pervasive grip. It was in the 'Daily Express' of Tuesday, April 30th, 1968. Photographed with a Nikon D700 and a 55mm f/3.5 Micro-Nikkor AI lens. A little bit of pathos in red ink on discoloured newsprint.
