 Now would be a good time for Tiffin to act her age. 
You would think U.S. born actress Pamela Tiffin would be too old for dolls at this point in her life, but here she is hanging onto one for dear life at age twenty-seven in this promo photo from 1969. The session was originally staged for Playboy, and this image is a clean version of one that had a seam across it in the magazine. We think Tiffin should ditch the doll. It would be better for her. And us. But it's an amazing shot anyway, with the dark green grass and the curly, golden locks, possibly extensions or a wig. Tiffin popped up in some American films, but really made her mark in Italy, where she landed leading roles in films such as Amore mio, uccidimi!, aka Kill Me, My Love!, and Il vichingo venuto dal sud, aka The Blonde in the Blue Movie, aka No One Will Notice You're Naked. This is her third appearance on Pulp as a femme fatale due to the fact that she made unusually interesting photos. See two more examples here and here. She also appears at the bottom of this page.

The headlines that mattered yesteryear.
1954—Joseph McCarthy Disciplined by Senate
In the United States, after standing idly by during years of communist witch hunts in Hollywood and beyond, the U.S. Senate votes 65 to 22 to condemn Joseph McCarthy for conduct bringing the Senate into dishonor and disrepute. The vote ruined McCarthy's career. 1955—Rosa Parks Sparks Bus Boycott
In the U.S., in Montgomery, Alabama, seamstress Rosa Parks refuses to give her bus seat to a white man and is arrested for violating the city's racial segregation laws, an incident which leads to the Montgomery Bus Boycott. The boycott resulted in a crippling financial deficit for the Montgomery public transit system, because the city's African-American population were the bulk of the system's ridership. 1936—Crystal Palace Gutted by Fire
In London, the landmark structure Crystal Palace, a 900,000 square foot glass and steel exhibition hall erected in 1851, is destroyed by fire. The Palace had been moved once and fallen into disrepair, and at the time of the fire was not in use. Two water towers survived the blaze, but these were later demolished, leaving no remnants of the original structure.
