Brilliant Norman Parkinson cover of The Queen magazine on Sloane Street in London.
This issue is designed by Mark Boxer and there is a fantastic multi-page series of ads for The London Bedding Centre company with models shot all over iconic London location inside by John Cowan in the style of Parkinson's cover image. One of the examples of an advert being used as a cover image. Really unusual and ground breaking for its time. Locations for the bed include Eros in Piccidilly Circus, Sloane and Regent Streets, and the Coliseum Theatre.
There is an early Susannah York portrait, aged 19, inside by Cecil Beaton.
The great composer Leonard Bernstein is featured inside in an article photographed by perhaps the greatest documentary photographer of them all Henri Cartier-Bresson. This is the second in a series entitled 'A touch of Greatness' photographed by Bresson and the intimate images of Bernstein at work and with his family are wonderful. 6 pages
Fenella Fielding demonstrates 'The last word on slimming exercises' by Bob Gill. One full page of images.
Also in this incredible issue - BERLEI, Dan Budnik, EVA MARIE SAINT, Franco Zeffirelli, GOSSARD, KAYSER LINGERIE, LYCRA, RODERICK MUNRO, SCANDALE, SHEILA WARE and SPANDEX!
