A Chequered Past.


A Chequered Past by Peter Schlesinger
$50

I got this book yesterday and have spent the day reading it and guffawing. Yes, guffawing.

Peter Schlesinger was the lover of David Hockney and travelled in some insane social circles in the 60s and 70s - this book is a visual diary of those times and it's priceless. 

I'm going to post some more pictures and commentaries. I think the commentaries are genius.

This is a stellar shot of David Hockney. I want to dress up as him for Halloween but Sharlene has pointed out that people might think I'm a bad Andy Warhol. I don't care. This year I was Vivienne Westwood and most people thought I was "Scottish".
