An original issue of POL, May 1983 — "The Golden Years of Glamour." POL was a distinctively Australian lifestyle and culture magazine published from 1968 to 1986, prized today for its high production values and its role in showcasing major Australian photographers of the era (this issue includes work credited to Robert McFarlane). The cover features a striking Man Ray-style soft-focus portrait, and inside is a mix of period fashion, arts and theatre coverage (including a Sydney Theatre Company feature on "Gossip from the Forest" at the Opera House) alongside glossy full-page ads for Lancôme, Cartier, Champagne Lanson and Hammerman Furs — a strong snapshot of early-80s Australian glamour and consumer culture.
