Geef het maar toe. Wat je schrijft
heeft geen zin. Gevoelig gezwatel,
en meisje dat zingt. Hou toch op,
stomp jezelf in je rug. Wees oprecht
tegen lezers. Liever dan dikke woorden
een kille inspectie. Kijk, deze foto:
leeg strand bij avond. jonge vrouw.
achterkant. Haar hemd heeft de kleur
van de zee. Zand op haar schouders,
zout haar in een knot op haar kruin,
bleek licht rond haar lichaam. Stil.
Zij heeft nog een week.

A monument to Norwegian polar explorer Helmer Hanssen stands before a museum with the seal hunting ship MS Polstjerna (1949) in Tromso, Norway. One hundred thousand seals were slaughtered by the ship's crew.
The Helms Bakery coach was a familiar sight and sound to neighborhoods in the Greater Los Angeles area until the close of their business around 1969.
You could hear the Helms vehicle making its way to your house by the distinctive whistle, one that was sounded by a hand-operated air bellows mounted on the roof of the coach.
The classic Helms Bakery coach was a Divco such as this example. Panel trucks were also utilized on some routes. When we lived in College Park East in Seal Beach, the Helms delivery vehicle was a yellow and blue Chevrolet or GMC panel truck from the early-mid 1960's. When we lived in Los Angeles, however, the Helms man drove a Divco such as this. Perhaps it was related to the physical distance between the bakery and the neighborhood. I suspect that the Divco vehicles were not meant to travel at freeway speeds.
Here's an 18 minute period video that was most likely filmed at the Helms Bakery. youtu.be/EsUh5olDi7s The scenes at the dinner tables all across the world are quaint!

Helm Leasing GP40 3520 at Bensenville, Illinois on June 2, 1987, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. Number 3520 was built in August 1970 ( c/n 36827 ) as WP 3520, then HL 3520, then CMNW 3003, then WC 3003. I'm not sure if these were leased by the Milwaukee Road or the SOO. The SOO assumed control of the Milwaukee Road on January 1, 1986.

We have been walking near dried lagoons for 4 days and I've been thinking for myself that those patters that are left had something interesting. In our last day I just switched to my macro lens and started looking to the ground trying to figure out what kind of shot I could take. All shots are heartless and are more like just pattern photos. This little ant help me giving a little light to this cloudy day.
Another of Johnny Helms' advertising cartoons for Mal Rees cycles. This one is from 'Sporting Cyclist', July 1962. It is understood that Johnny owned a Mal Rees bike. I've wondered if any money changed hands for the artwork? It could have been altruism on JH's part in praise of the Mal Rees marque, or perhaps he received a bike as payment for a series of adverts. Does anyone know? They weren't neighbours; Mal Rees' business was in West London; JH lived near Warrington, Cheshire.
