Alternative Bondage Fashion From the 1940s

These photographs capture an alternative model in Newcastle, taken on the 22nd of January 1949. The collection is undeniably ahead of its time, the photographs are of an unusually dark and suggestive nature.

Nothing is known of their purpose or the model in the photographs; they are simply referred to as “Mr Steinberg’s Model.”

The collection raises strong questions of an unknown Newcastle. Their dark and seductive content is suggestive of an underground and alternative scene with tones of theatrics and burlesque.

  1. I am looking for, any pics from the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade in 1978. Or even a list of the guest stars that were in it. I have looked at everything I can possibly think of online, but no luck.
