Kubrick photo of lampworker

[Chris Juedemann]

I was looking at Stanley Kubrick photos from the 1940's (http://english.mashkulture.net/2011/11/30/stanley-kubricks-photos-of-1940s-new-york/) and saw this. 25 some years later he made Dr. Strangelove.

Great photo! It does remind me of dr. Strangelove. I gotta watch that movie again.

[Mr. Wonka]

Holy shit... that's Barry without his mustache!

Also- Those are the new glass worker uniforms that mer was worried about :puzzled:

P.S.- Chris, give me a call sometime... I haven't talked to you in a while : )

On closer inspection, he is using a Herring for a punty.

Cool... but where's the body of the torch? :puzzled:

Cool... but where's the body of the torch? :puzzled:

I've never seen Strange Love so I didn't want to say anything... (I've been meaning to watch it for the longest time but haven't made it happen yet.

But yeah! I keep staring at this photo scratching my dome. I see two gas lines, I think... but no stand/body.

Chest-mounted torch? :crazy:

[Strangelove's plan for post-nuclear war survival involves living underground with a 10:1 female-to-male ratio]

General "Buck" Turgidson: Doctor, you mentioned the ratio of ten women to each man. Now, wouldn't that necessitate the abandonment of the so-called monogamous sexual relationship, I mean, as far as men were concerned?

Dr. Strangelove: Regrettably, yes. But it is, you know, a sacrifice required for the future of the human race. I hasten to add that since each man will be required to do prodigious... service along these lines, the women will have to be selected for their sexual characteristics which will have to be of a highly stimulating nature.

Ambassador de Sadesky: I must confess, you have an astonishingly good idea there, Doctor.

great pic!
