Original LIFE magazine featuring actress Pat Crowley on the cover (she’s still around!) inside is an interesting mix of b & w stories and brilliant color ads. TRUE MCM slice of life… our parents (or grandparents’) world. Cars look huge and gorgeous. Baseball is front & center, with Willie Mays article & photos. American made fashions. HORRIFIC account of “accidental” radiation exposure to fishing boat & government downplay of same. Dr. Seuss travels to occupied Japan to observe & document the changes he sees in Japanese school children (“Americanized). You can hear about it, but now you are seeing with your own eyes; the world view shaped by popular media MCM. You even get a full page Coke ad. Fascinating. One page seems to have a coffee cup ring stain.
