Dancing Couple Socks
Description: The December 1, 1928 cover of The Saturday Evening Post flaunts a delightfully dramatic scene, courtesy of famed American illustrator Elbert McGran Jackson. His “Dancing Couple” captures an 18th-century baroque duo mid–back-to-back dance-off, the lady twirling in a mountain of ruffled red fabric like a crimson tornado, seemingly challenging her partner to survive the routine without face-planting in his own elaborate footwear.
Description: A vintage mid-century illustration shows a young couple busting out rock and roll moves like they’re auditioning for the dance hall hall of fame. The black-and-white sketch pops with coral-pink flair on the guy’s sweater stripe, socks, and a ribbon dramatically flapping “Dance,” while a modest gray banner below politely announces “RHYTHM ROCK,” in case anyone missed the memo.
Description: "I know a dark secluded place, a place where no one knows your face. A glass of wine, a fast embrace... it's called Hernando's Hideaway." In the 1954 musical The Pajama Game, Hernando's Hideaway is a raunchy dive bar in East Dubuque, Illinois, perched on a high cliff overlooking the highway between Dubuque and Galena. The movie was based on the stage play of the same name which, in turn, was based on the book (7 1/2 Cents, by Richard Bissell); it is only in the original book that there is information about where the story takes place.
