The Ceremonial Samurai Gear Of A Japanese Military Leader
Felice Beato not only photographed this imposing scene in 1863, but unlike most of the photographs in this list, he also went to great lengths to add lifelike colors himself. Beato was fascinated with a variety of cultures and their ceremonious outfits, taking enormous portraits of lauded individuals. He would include a vignette to his photographs to make them appear more like paintings. Here we have a Japanese military general called Koboto Santaro in full samurai gear.

Sally Field On Set At The Production Of Gidget
The film Gidget was where the beautiful 18-year-old Sally Field’s breakthrough role where she played a ditzy and trouble-attracting surfer girl. Field would later speak on how she was discovered, having been approached by an agent who spotted her among a workshop’s participants. When asked if she was attached to an agent, Field said no, but this did not deter her from trying out for the role. She entered a space brimming with Hollywood-appropriate beauties. While they provided their own studio headshots, all that Sally had were polaroid snaps of herself. Amusingly, Sally did not even know which camera to look at during her tryout. Thankfully, that was exactly what the director was looking for!
