Priscilla Presley in a Car

A glimpse at the life of Priscilla Presley, photographed by fans (they seem too candid to be taken by paparazzi but maybe we’re wrong) while she was behind the steering wheel of her car. The collection above must be the tip of a very high mountain of photographs. And how many times did Ms Presley must have her signed her autograph? Must be a mountain of paper as well! Priscilla Presley is still photographed in her car. We found one image made in 2014 (on zimbio), there are probably more images but we like the old ones better, she looks happier in them.

Kennedy was assassinated in Dallas, Texas, on November 22, 1963, the event and its aftermath were transmitted to a stunned nation via photography and television. Many of the key news photographs from those days were taken by amateur photographers, or happenstance bystanders, rather than by professional photojournalists.
