"1975: A Year of Icons and Achievements" Step into the time machine and travel back to 1975, a year filled with remarkable moments that shaped history. This captivating poster takes us on a journey through various events and personalities that left an indelible mark on our collective memory. British Military medals proudly adorn the top corner of the poster, symbolizing bravery and sacrifice. These medals serve as a reminder of the valor displayed by countless heroes who fought for their country's freedom. Haile Selassie, Emperor of Ethiopia, stands tall in another frame. His presence evokes memories of his defiant speech at the League of Nations in 1936 during Italy's invasion, where he pleaded for justice and international cooperation against aggression. Colonel Norton captures our attention next as we witness him scaling Mount Everest at an astonishing altitude of 28, 000 feet in 1924. His daring expedition paved the way for future mountaineers seeking to conquer nature's tallest peak. A photograph of Shostakovich follows suit, capturing the essence of one of Russia's greatest composers. The intensity in his eyes reflects his passion for music that transcended political boundaries during tumultuous times. The London Film Festival Poster from 1975 reminds us how cinema has always been a powerful medium to express ideas and emotions. It serves as a gateway to explore diverse narratives that captivate audiences worldwide. Francisco Franco Bahamonde's portrait reminds us about Spain's turbulent past under his authoritarian rule until his death in 1975. This image prompts reflection on historical transitions towards democracy across nations. Intriguingly, even Arkle - a famous racehorse - finds its place among these icons while looking over Paddy Murray's shoulder as he reads intently. This juxtaposition highlights both human achievements and our deep connection with animals throughout history. Tom Baker graces this collection dressed as Doctor Who circa 1975 – Rev 3747 vfr1.
