The power of art!
Saturday Artwork is a piece of 'Commercial Art', made as an advertisement for Rolls-Royce Aero Division in the early 1960s. The artist gives you a view of an English Electric Lightning in full re-heat that would have been a little tricky to witness in reality!

For the final Irish cryptid, we have the Lough Dubh monster. A teacher apparently hooked this creature while fishing in the 1960s. He described it as the size of a cow with short thick legs and a white pointed horn on the snout. The creature broke the fishing line and escaped https://t.co/IPRV5HfAZl

An unexpected surprise to see Scrooge McDuck as an idol. A successful idol at the age of 155. His career began in the mid-1960s. His niece and nephews never knew about his singing career until they discovered something that isn't quite right about the adventurer.

Because Barbara never wore purple in the comics until the Burnside era, after Steph's Batgirl run. Her colors were black/blue/yellow as Batgirl. It's the way it's been since she was introduced in the 1960s. Purple Batgirl suits *were* a Stephanie Brown thing. https://t.co/L6DbeiKLPh

A wonderful image of a Handley Page Hastings C Mk1 of Royal Air Force Transport Command, dating from the late 1950s or early 1960s.
This particular aircraft appears to have no 'spinners' on the her props, not something I've ever seen before on a Hastings.

The interstellar war that broke out in search of the mysterious stone "germanium" has reached a stalemate. At one point, a small radio buried in the rubble played a hit song from the 1960s. It was a song from a time when people could share universal values.

I was influenced by hundreds of different painters and photographers throughout my life. Both classical and modern. After experimenting I chose to join lowbrow/pop surrealism art movement - underground visual art movement that arose in the LA, California area in the late 1960s.
