Speaking of different body shapes. These are all basically peak human bodies. 

How come 99% of them don’t conform to what the entertainment industry tells us is the perfect body?

This is a FABULOUS set of body refs. So glad this came back across my dash so I could reblog it here :D

These images are from a book by Howard Schatz of various Olympic athletes, which was titled “Athlete.”  You can buy the book [here].  Also, have some more photos from it:

Never not reblogging this.

Awesome!

Best set of body diversity references I’ve seen. I love it!

Four young evacuees from Sacramento, California read comic books at the newsstand in the Tule Lake Relocation Center. Newell, California, 1942. 

The “evacuees” are Japanese Americans, forced into an internment camp. The one on the left is reading MARVEL MYSTERY COMICS #34, which contains the stories “Exposed! The Jap Invaders” and “Dr. Watson Makes Monkeys Out of the Japs.”

Because Lugosi never learned to drive he got around Hollywood on rollerskates.


Vampira, in which she describes her first meeting with him: “I was a young girl window-shopping on Hollywood Boulevard. I was bending low to see the detail of some shoes and someone whizzed around the corner on rollerskates, almost bumped my fanny and crashed into me. ‘Pardon me,’ said he, and ‘Pardon me,’ said I. He was wearing an Ascot cravat and a beret. It was Bela Lugosi on rollerskates. He was on his way to a cigar store.”

At first glance, these objects may look like planets but they are actually photos of the bottoms of frying pans.

I’M SO MAD RIGHT NOW

Beautiful, yet trolly. I like it.
