false 4894759 1 The most famous, wonderful AND inspiring pictures ever to appear in the pages of LIFE are here. All the great action shots are here--from the sailor kissing the nurse to the first astronaut walking in space. The unsurpassed portraiture-- from screen icons like Marilyn Monroe and Elizabeth Taylor to world leaders including John Fitzgerald Kennedy and Winston Churchill--are all here as well. <BR><BR> LIFE has, of course, visited its archives before--but never like this. This edition puts the photographs on display, not only as part of the page layout but as the page itself. The explanatory text will be out of the way, so that each image can be savored. Moreover, prints will be included that are not just suitable for framing, but meant for framing. And not only will there be photographic prints; there will also be 75 other famous pictures that appeared in LIFE's pages, the story behind each of them and the narrative history of what LIFE's photography has long meant to the country and, indeed, to the world. 4960213 21 10 2008 Life: The Classic Collection total:5|5:2|4:2|3:1|2:0|1:0| 5 21 8 3 3 0 false false Wed Feb 25 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Wed Feb 25 08:36:53 -0800 2009 Wed Feb 25 08:36:53 -0800 2009 more...]]> 5 0 false false Sat Oct 25 15:01:16 -0700 2008 Sun Nov 16 21:12:10 -0800 2008 more...]]> 5 0 false false Thu Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Thu Jan 08 09:06:23 -0800 2009 Thu Jan 08 09:09:28 -0800 2009 4 0 false false Mon Oct 12 19:06:59 -0700 2009 Mon Oct 12 19:06:59 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Fri Jul 17 16:56:04 -0700 2009 Fri Jul 17 16:56:04 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Fri Dec 26 15:26:14 -0800 2008 Fri Dec 26 15:26:14 -0800 2008 0 0 false false Sun Dec 21 09:35:39 -0800 2008 Sun Dec 21 09:35:41 -0800 2008 0 0 false false Thu Oct 02 11:46:13 -0700 2008 Thu Oct 02 11:46:13 -0700 2008 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=4894759
