...what the commemoration was all about, had somehow failed to show up in the engraving. There were three other misprinted sheets that had not been sold, but embarrassed Zone officials decided to print more, Harris' saturate dreams of the market philatelic and ruin treasure. They were taking their cue from one time Postmaster General J. Edward Day, who had highhandedly ordered a flood of deliberately misprinted Dag HammarskjÖld commemoratives in order to devaluate an accidental misprint (TIME...

...want to put on long gowns," he points out. "What else can give them that special gala feeling? Who wants to go to a formal dance in the same-length dress she wears all day?" To create that special feeling, Galanos depended largely on chiffon and sex. Taking a cue from the new bathing suits, he draped nude chiffon across deeply plunging necklines or stretched it tantalizingly across back or midriff. Some of the tops were too brief even to hide a bra, and the models had nothing to rely on but moral support...
