This edition of Cut & Paste focuses on an exceptionally cool blog, which as far as I can tell is simply called 'X'. The blog itself is void of description, and we know only that the author is someone called carlosdynamo (an outstanding nom de plume I kind of wish I'd came up with myself).
It's cool because of its content - b/w photos of celebrities from today and (mostly) yesteryear. But what makes it outstanding is that it's somehow voyeuristic, without being necessarily creepy; it's simple, but certainly not unafecting...
The photos are, I'm sure, sourced from public domain yet the author gives credit where possible - but I like the fact that there is a real feel of anonymity to this stuff, it' only serves to add to the mystique of the content. The authors descriptions of the photos (some, but not all) are generally very insightful also...
I like this blog - I think you'll probably like it too: X.
Here's a little sampling (see if you can name each person before you click the link):
