Once there was elegance and style, and media where opinions could be freely expressed. Perhaps all that has emigrated to the internet. I wouldn't know.

Theda Bara is not in this picture due to editing and going for a double exposure. The lady who is in this picture has her photograph in a book which I bought in a secondhand bookshop.

Theda Bara is indelibly associated with "International Times" an 'underground' fortnightly journal aimed fairly squarely at young impressionable readers and 'alternative' types. It had a heavy accent on what it perceived to be 'progressive’ music.

Theda Bara's picture was borrowed for the International Times masthead in the mistaken belief that it was a photograph of Clara Bow. Thus the vampish silent-movie star Theda came afresh to fame, albeit seven years after her death.

I have digressed. Theda Bara is not even in the photograph above.
