Pulp International - Album cover image of Hitomi Kozue

Dec 27 2016

Hitomi Kozue is number one on any chart you care to name.

We've shared several images of Japanese actress Hitomi Kozue that had never been seen online before, and we have more we haven't uploaded we plan to get to. But today we wanted to share someone else's effort. The Tumblr blog Humungus posted a Japanese photo collection cover with Kozue on the front. The image was so striking we decided to wipe the text off it and present it as a clean photograph—just Kozue, unadorned. You see the result above. You're welcome.

The headlines that mattered yesteryear.

1914—Aquitania Sets Sail

The Cunard liner RMS Aquitania, at 45,647 tons, sets sails on her maiden voyage from Liverpool, England to New York City. At the time she is the largest ocean liner on the seas. During a thirty-six year career the ship serves as both a passenger liner and military ship in both World Wars before being retired and scrapped in 1950.

1914—RMS Empress Sinks

Canadian Pacific Steamships' 570 foot ocean liner Empress of Ireland is struck amidships by a Norwegian coal freighter and sinks in the Gulf of St. Lawrence with the loss of 1,024 lives. Submerged in 130 feet of water, the ship is so easily accessible to treasure hunters who removed valuables and bodies from the wreck that the Canadian government finally passes a law in 1998 restricting access.

1937—Chamberlain Becomes Prime Minister

Arthur Neville Chamberlain, who is known today mainly for his signing of the Munich Agreement in 1938 which conceded the Sudetenland region of Czechoslovakia to Nazi Germany and was supposed to appease Adolf Hitler's imperial ambitions, becomes prime minister of Great Britain. At the time Chamberlain is the second oldest man, at age sixty-eight, to ascend to the office. Three years later he would give way to Winston Churchill.
