Produktbeschreibung
On the side of the building, written in punk-style 'kidnap' lettering, strangely in English, (for this is Sapporo, Japan), it says 'Atomic GoGo Glamour'. What could possibly be inside? No, don't tell me. I want it to remain a mystery. From the late '70s until early in the 21st century I was lucky enough to travel to places that, as a kid growing up in Neptune, New Jersey, USA in the '50s, I never dreamed I'd one day visit. This was the great age of mass 747 global tourism but, significantly, the age before the smart phone and the selfie - back in the Neanderthal days of cameras which, incredibly, couldn't do anything except take photos. 187 colour images from Italy, Thailand, Switzerland, Argentina, South Korea, Great Britain, France, Netherlands, Greece, Australia, USA and Japan. Contains a small amount of nudity. A SLIDESHOW FEATURING MANY OF THE PHOTOS IN THIS BOOK IS NOW AVAILABLE ON YOUTUBE - JUST SEARCH > ATOMIC GOGO GLAMOUR
