The Factory
The Factory I'm not sure what triggered this note on my to-do list "research club PLN co-owned in 60s" and didn't hold out much hope for finding info based on that tidbit, but God bless Google because it led me to this Time Magazine from 1968 that covered The Factory: an exclusive membership only club co-owned by Peter Lawford, Sammy Davis Jr. Newman and a few others. No photos seem to be available, but the article is written in such fluent 60s-ese that one can taste the cigarette smoke and martinis. Oh to have a peek at that men's room graffiti! I love how "industrial-chic" is seems like a novel concept at this time. PLN, trendy before his time. 2007-07-03 00:46:15 GMT | |||
