Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3EGG814 - Photograph of an original printed concert ticket for U2 live at Elland Road Stadium, Leeds, West Yorkshire, on Wednesday 1 July 1987, during the European leg of The Joshua Tree Tour. The ticket carries the large U2 logo, band portrait imagery of Bono, The Edge, Adam Clayton and Larry Mullen Jr, the words MCP presents, plus Special Guests, Elland Road Leeds, the date, 4.00 pm show time, 2.00 pm gates opening, £14.00 ticket price including VAT, block, row and seat details, and the warning No camping is allowed. It is a strong editorial image for searches about U2 memorabilia, 1980s rock, stadium concerts, The Joshua Tree era, music history, live music ticket design, Leeds events, Elland Road concerts and collectible paper ephemera. The Leeds show is documented as taking place on 1 July 1987 at Elland Road Stadium as part of The Joshua Tree Tour, with specialist U2 concert archive sources listing support from The Fall, The Mission and The Pretenders, making the ticket a useful visual record of a major outdoor rock event in northern England. Elland Road is best known as the home of Leeds United, but this image reflects its wider use as a large music and events venue as well as a football stadium. The ticket's blue patterned security background, gold and black typography, portrait panel and visible serial numbers help place it in the era before digital tickets, mobile entry and barcode scanning, when physical concert tickets were keepsakes as well as access documents. The worn paper, creases and aged print add documentary value, suggesting a surviving souvenir from one of the defining rock tours of the late 1980s. Useful themes include U2, Bono, Joshua Tree Tour, Elland Road, Leeds, 1987, vintage ticket, concert memorabilia, live music, arena rock, Irish rock band, eighties culture, stadium gig, West Yorkshire, collectors, nostalgia, pop culture archive, music heritage and historic entertainment ephemera.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3EFHT0M - Evening street photograph of the stock-photo/gotonysmith-Palace.html?sortBy=relevant&pseudoid=237DAF28-A4ED-4448-8173-C0E81ABEEC6F Target=_Blank>Palace Theatre on Oxford Street, Manchester, illuminated in warm red and amber light as posters and digital signage advertise The Karate Kid musical. The image shows the theatre frontage after dusk, with the distinctive Art Deco style façade, pavement activity, bicycles, passing pedestrians and the bright canopy wording promoting The iconic 80s movie, a spectacular new musical. The central vertical poster and repeated pavement posters make the production branding clear, including the title The Karate Kid and the familiar wax on reference associated with the 1984 film. This is a commercially useful editorial image for themes around Manchester theatre, touring musicals, live entertainment, audience culture, city centre nightlife, visitor economy, leisure spending, popular culture nostalgia and screen-to-stage adaptations. The Palace Theatre is one of Manchester's major receiving houses, close to Oxford Road station and the Oxford Road Corridor, an area linked with performance venues, universities, hotels, restaurants and evening footfall. The low light, glowing signage and open foreground give a strong sense of pre-show atmosphere, night-time economy and cultural life in central Manchester. The photograph may also illustrate the appeal of classic 1980s cinema properties being revived for contemporary theatre audiences, alongside broader stories about musical theatre tours, ticketed events, city centre cultural venues and landmark theatres in UK regional arts. The visible Palace Theatre name, Karate Kid posters and bold canopy message provide clear editorial context without needing a crowd scene. The image suits articles, features and stock uses covering Manchester arts, theatre marketing, nostalgic movie brands, Oxford Street nightlife, touring stage productions, theatre-going, urban leisure, live performance, entertainment listings, family shows and cultural tourism in Greater Manchester.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3CGCJRA - Ian Kevin Curtis (15 July 1956 18 May 1980) was an English singer, songwriter and musician. He was the lead singer, songwriter, and occasional guitarist of the band Joy Division, with whom he released the albums Unknown Pleasures (1979) and Closer (1980).
Curtis had severe epilepsy and depression and died by suicide on the eve of Joy Division's first North American tour, shortly before the release of Closer
On the evening of 17 May 1980, Curtis asked Deborah to drop her impending divorce proceedings
she replied that it was likely that he would have changed his mind by the following morning and then mindful of his previous suicide attempt and also concerned that his state of anxiety and frustration might drive Curtis into an epileptic seizure offered to spend the night in his company. Deborah then drove to her parents' home to inform them of her intentions. When she returned to the couple's home at 77 Barton Street in Macclesfield, his demeanour had changed and he informed his wife of his intentions to spend the night alone, first making her promise not to return to the house before he had taken his scheduled 10 a.m. train to Manchester to meet his bandmates.
In the early hours of the next morning, Curtis took his own life. He was 23 years old. He had used the kitchen's washing line to hang himself after having written a note to Deborah in which he declared his love for her despite his recent affair with Honoré. Deborah found his body soon after. In her 1995 biography, Touching from a Distance, Deborah recalls finding her husband's body and initially thinking that he was still alive before noticing the rope around his neck. According to Tony Wilson, Curtis spent the few hours before his suicide watching Werner Herzog's 1977 film Stroszek and listening to Iggy Pop's 1977 album The Idiot. Stark notes the significance of this album, as Pop's title was inspired by Dostoyevsky's novel The Idiot about the spiritually sensitive epileptic prince who was driven mad

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3E5TC7N - Traditional illuminated Tennent's Lager sign at the Speedwell Bar, widely known as Mennies, on Perth Road in Dundee's West End, Scotland. The photograph shows the classic blue, white and red brewery branding against a black night sky, with the words Tennent's Lager and Speedwell Bar clearly visible on the rectangular exterior lightbox. This is a strong editorial image for stories about Scottish pubs, brewery heritage, Dundee nightlife, traditional bar culture, historic drinking places, hospitality branding and the visual identity of long-established licensed premises. The Speedwell Bar is one of Dundee's best-known pubs and has for generations been better known locally as Mennies, after the family long associated with the property. Located on Perth Road in the city's West End, close to the student and cultural quarter, it is recognised for its preserved interior, strong local following and enduring place in Dundee social history. The sign itself is commercially useful because it combines clear readable text, instantly recognisable beer branding, a sense of place and a night-time atmosphere in a simple, graphic composition. It suits editorial coverage of pub culture, real ale and lager traditions, urban Scotland, community meeting places, heritage hospitality, beer marketing, traditional streetscapes and regional travel. It also works well for features on Scottish brewing history, classic pub exteriors, independent bars, Dundee landmarks, West End culture and the continuing appeal of old-school pubs. The visible Tennent's branding adds relevance for editors and picture buyers looking for Scottish beer references, drinks logos, consumer culture, pub signage, street photography and documentary images of leisure life. With its uncluttered framing and contrast, the picture is also useful for tourism pages, local history features, hospitality trade writing and visual discussions of how beer brands remain embedded in the look and memory of Scottish public houses.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3E6T4TB - Blue neon text sign in a shop window quoting a famous line from The Smiths song This Charming Man, reading I would go out tonight, but I haven't got a stitch to wear, photographed as a witty piece of fashion retail display and pop culture street detail. The glowing electric blue lettering stands out against the darker shuttered or ribbed background, creating a moody, urban, after-hours feel associated with nightlife, clothing, style anxiety and classic indie music references. The image works as an editorial illustration of music heritage, Morrissey lyric culture, Manchester indie nostalgia, shopfront merchandising, window display design, fashion humour and the relationship between song lyrics and everyday retail spaces. It suggests themes of getting dressed, indecision, wardrobe shortages, consumer temptation, going out culture, youth identity, vintage cool, boutique branding and the playful borrowing of well-known words to catch attention in a commercial setting. The photograph would suit stories or features about The Smiths, 1980s indie music, Manchester pop history, lyric quotation in public spaces, visual merchandising, neon typography, independent fashion retail, nightlife economy, city centre shopping streets, subculture style, retro revival and music-inspired design. Strong graphic lines, luminous typography and the contrast between cyan wording and the darker surroundings make it useful for editorial, magazine and cultural commentary uses. It also carries a sense of self-consciousness and pre-going-out ritual that makes the line memorable, connecting fashion display with the uncertainty of dressing to be seen. The wording feels recognisable to fans of guitar music and adds irony, because the retail setting offers clothes while the lyric complains of having nothing suitable to wear. That tension makes the image useful for articles about style, consumption, vintage retail, youth culture, music fandom, quote culture and song lines in shop windows.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2X2CG2C - Interior signage advertising nail bar and beauty services inside Jenners department store on Princes Street in Edinburgh, Scotland. The display promotes manicure and beauty treatments associated with the store's Regis Spa offering and is set against the distinctive interior finishes of one of Scotland's most famous retail landmarks.
Jenners, founded in 1838, has long been regarded as Edinburgh's premier department store and a key feature of Princes Street, the city's principal shopping thoroughfare. Often referred to historically as the Harrods of the North, the store has played a central role in Edinburgh's retail and social life for generations.
Beauty services such as nail bars and spas reflect the evolution of traditional department stores, adapting to changing consumer habits by combining retail with experiential services. The image captures this blend of historic retail heritage and contemporary beauty culture within a city-centre shopping environment.
This photograph is suitable for editorial use illustrating department store interiors, beauty and wellness retail, Edinburgh shopping, changing high street models, luxury retail environments, and the modernisation of historic retail institutions in the UK.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2RC31A0 - This photograph shows a large painted mural on Bold Street in Warrington, Cheshire, carrying the message As a team we can do so much more. We are stronger together. The artwork combines bold illustrated imagery, including a stylised bird and red wings set against a green woodland background, with a clear statement promoting unity, cooperation, and collective strength.
Murals such as this have become an increasingly visible part of urban regeneration and placemaking in UK town centres, using public art to reinforce positive social values and local identity. The wording emphasises teamwork and solidarity, themes that resonate strongly within community-focused environments and periods of social or economic challenge.
Positioned along a prominent street frontage, the mural transforms an otherwise plain exterior wall into a visual statement that engages passers-by and contributes to the character of the area. The bright colours and accessible message make the artwork legible from a distance while encouraging reflection on shared responsibility and mutual support.
Photographed in daylight, the image documents contemporary British street art as both creative expression and civic messaging. It is well suited for editorial use covering community engagement, urban regeneration, public art, and the role of murals in shaping modern town centre environments in England

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2M4K85B - Until 1992, upon leaving either Manchester Piccadilly or Victoria stations you'd be met by this - a line of little 'Centreline' buses waiting to take passengers from one station to the other across the city centre via the shopping and office districts.
Manchester was the site of the first passenger railway in the world - the Liverpool & Manchester Railway in 1830. But the haphazard way railways were planned and competed in the Victoria age meant that there was little coordination and there were three separate major stations in the city with no effective links between north and south. London Road (later Piccadilly) served the south, while Victoria served the north. The third, Central, closed in 1969 and for a while became a semi-derelict car park before its wonderful transformation into an exhibition centre.
So to connect the two stations, SELNEC and ten GMT ran a 'Centreline' service running at frequent intervals, with a flat fare to speed boarding. Some of the route was in narrow streets so these little Seddon 'Midi' buses were bought, built in Oldham. They were perfect for the job operationally but they were not popular with their drivers or the garage staff as they were difficult to maintain, noisy inside and with most of their weight at the front they could skid in wet or icy weather. But they did their job day in, day out for many years, buzzing around the city streets and usually full.
The Seddon's lasted twelve years, a very good age for lightly-built buses, until replaced by new Dennis buses in 1986. Then in 1992 Metrolink at last provide a rail-borne link across the city centre between the two main stations. The raison d'etre for Centreline was gone and the service ended.
Most of the Seddon's were scrapped but one or two still exist including number 1722, which is fully restored and on display at the Museum of Transport Greater Manchester.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2M4K85W - Greater Manchester Passenger Transport Executive was the public body responsible for public transport in Greater Manchester between 1974 and 2011, when it became part of Transport for Greater Manchester.
Until 1969, the conurbation surrounding Manchester was divided between the two administrative counties of Lancashire and Cheshire and a number of county boroughs, such as Manchester, Salford, Stockport or Bolton. To comply with the Transport Act 1968, on 1 April 1969 the SELNEC Passenger Transport Executive was formed. SELNEC stood for South East Lancashire North East Cheshire, a joint authority of the various local councils
When the metropolitan county of Greater Manchester was created on 1 April 1974 the executive was replaced by GMPTE, with the county council replacing the joint transport authority. The public branding applied to buses and signage used the shorter name Greater Manchester Transport, displayed in upper and lower case Helvetica next to a distinctive orange double 'M' logo. The logo, first seen around 1974, is still in use today on bus stops and transport information literature, but is being gradually replaced on the former across Greater Manchester by rebranded bus stop flags displaying the new Transport for Greater Manchester logo.
To add to printed material and logos etched in glass on the side of bus shelters, GMPTE began a programme of adding their 'double M' logo to 101 railway station nameboards, stock-photo/gotonysmith-Train.html?sortBy=relevant&pseudoid=237DAF28-A4ED-4448-8173-C0E81ABEEC6F Target=_Blank>train rolling stock livery, bus sides and some 'totem' pole signs outside rail stations in the area during the 1990s. This idea was later extended to a full re-design of the bus stop flag in 2000, (used first on primary bus routes, now extended to the entire GMPTE area) resulting in a unified corporate appearance containing the 'double M' logo on bus, train and tram stops.
The PTE also acquired the bus operations of Wigan Corporation with 130 vehicles.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JYYR7P - Wham! (briefly known in the US as Wham! U.K.) were an English pop duo formed in Bushey in 1981. The duo consisted of George Michael and Andrew Ridgeley. They became one of the most commercially successful pop acts of the 1980s, selling more than 30 million certified records worldwide from 1982 to 1986.
Influenced by funk and soul music and presenting themselves as disaffected youth, Wham!'s 1983 debut album Fantastic addressed the United Kingdom's unemployment problem and teen angst over adulthood. Their second studio album Make It Big in 1984 was a worldwide pop smash hit, charting at number one in both the UK and the United States. Associated with the MTV-driven Second British Invasion of the US, the singles from the albumWake Me Up Before You Go-Go, Everything She Wants and Careless Whisperall topped the US Billboard Hot 100. In 1985, Wham! made a highly publicised 10-day visit to China, the first by a Western pop group. The event was seen as a major watershed moment in increasing friendly bilateral relations between China and the West.
In 1986, Wham! broke up. Michael was keen to create music targeted at a more sophisticated adult market rather than the duo's primarily teenage audience. Before going their separate ways, a farewell single The Edge of Heaven, and a greatest-hits album titled The Final would be forthcoming, along with a farewell concert entitled The Final.

Mark's mosaic masterpieces of city icons like music impressario Tony Wilson, footballer George Best and Smiths frontman Morrissey became a much-loved city landmark hung on the exterior of Afflecks but when the site was taken over by developer Bruntwood in 2008 they were kept by the previous manager.
But now Mark tells The Diary he has been commissioned to create a raft of new mosaics that will once again decorate the arches of the old building that corners a huge site off Oldham Street, Tib Street and Dale Street in the Northern Quarter.
He says: I suppose my artwork is Afflecks, that's what I do, it's what I'm known for. It has been my gallery for the past 12 years or so, so obviously I'm happy to be asked back.

And Mark, pictured here in his studio, is now hard at work on the second, an image of labrador Bruce, who the Black Dog Ballroom bar in the basement of Afflecks is named after.
Mark then has plans to create new mosaics of Manc icons, including a special Factory Records piece, to commemorate the label's late, great Tony Wilson, New Order manager Rob Gretton and legendary music producer Martin Hannett, among others

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2BCTGRG - Stockport is a large, major town in Greater Manchester, England, 7 miles (11 km) south-east of Manchester city centre, where the River Goyt and Tame merge to create the River Mersey, and the largest in the metropolitan borough of the same name.
Historically, most of the town was in Cheshire, but the area to the north of the Mersey was in Lancashire. Stockport in the 16th century was a small town entirely on the south bank of the Mersey, and known for the cultivation of hemp and manufacture of rope. In the 18th century the town had one of the first mechanised silk factories in the British Isles. However, Stockport's predominant industries of the 19th century were the cotton and allied industries. Stockport was also at the centre of the country's hatting industry, which by 1884 was exporting more than six million hats a year
the last hat works in Stockport closed in 1997.
Dominating the western approaches to the town is the Stockport Viaduct. Built in 1840, the viaduct's 27 brick arches carry the mainline railways from Manchester to Birmingham and London over the River Mersey. This structure featured as the background in many paintings by L. S. Lowry.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2AFK6XT - Trump Tower is a 58-floor, 664-foot-tall (202 m) mixed-use skyscraper at 721725 Fifth Avenue in the Midtown Manhattan neighborhood of New York City,USA,between East 56th and 57th Streets. It serves as the headquarters for the Trump Organization. Additionally, it houses the penthouse condominium residence of businessman, real estate developer, and former U.S. president Donald Trump, who developed the building and named it after himself. Several members of the Trump family also live, or have resided, in the building. The tower stands on a plot where the flagship store of department-store chain Bonwit Teller was formerly located.
Der Scutt of Poor, Swanke, Hayden & Connell designed Trump Tower, and Trump and the Equitable Life Assurance Company (now the AXA Equitable Life Insurance Company) developed it. Although it is in one of Midtown Manhattan's special zoning districts, the tower was approved because it was to be built as a mixed-use development. Trump was permitted to add more stories to the tower in return for additional retail space and for providing privately owned public space on the ground floor, the lower level, and two outdoor terraces. There were controversies during construction, including the destruction of historically important sculptures from the Bonwit Teller store
Trump's alleged underpaying of contractors
and a lawsuit that Trump filed because the tower was not tax-exempt.
Construction on the building began in 1979. The atrium, apartments, offices, and stores opened on a staggered schedule from February to November 1983. At first, there were few tenants willing to move into the commercial and retail spaces
the residential units were sold out within months of opening. After Trump's 2016 presidential campaign and subsequent election, the tower saw large increases in visitation, though security concerns required the area around the tower to be patrolled for several years.

The Shankill Protestant Boys Flute Bandor as they are more famously known nowThe SPBwere formed in the Shankill area in 1980. The reasons for forming the band were much more than simply establishing another flute bandthe Shankill had many at that time. The men behind the formation had other ideas. They wanted to promote and express their Protestant culture and also remember the brave Volunteers and Servicemen who had fought and died during two World Warsin particular during the Somme offensiveand to remember those in more recent times who perished during the conflict in the war against violent Republicanism.
Sadly many of those who served the band since their beginnings 33 years ago are no longer with useither passed away or in many instances murdered. However of the original founders around ten remain. Some, remarkably are still marching while others retain honorary membership. Gary LenaghanThe HuntersHarold Reynolds-The Young'sThe Freel'sJohn McQuadeDerek MawhinneyThe Finlay's were all there at the start and remain heavily involved today.
The SPB were the first flute band to receive and carry the colours of the 1st Battalion of the Ulster Volunteer Forcein 1982and to this day carry those colours with pride and dignity. It is a commonly known fact that these colours are carried on ALL occasionsat no time are they excludedand in the past this has caused some difficultieswith both the Police and indeed with certain sections of the Loyal Orders. At one stage during the Eighties the band came into conflict with the Scottish Orange Institution which forced the band off the road because of their refusal to parade without their beloved colours. Since then the SPB have not walked in Scotland with the Orange.
Around the same time and with the concept of the Supergrass system being implemented the band became heavily involved with Families For Legal Rights. For ma

Description: Tony Smith image Flickr 4234549401 - 'I was listening to this on my iPod yesterday and thought how apt it was given the strange wintery weather we have had of late. Check it out here.
The image I took from my ipod (like the MP3 sound I was getting) was no match for the real thing, a genuine 12' 45rpm single of the B5.
I saw them live in 1980 and they were more memorable than the headline band they supported.
Of course they were produced by the great but mis-guided Martin Hannet, who no doubt helped them achieve their unique Reggae-Punk sound.
I would recommend any music fan to checkout 'Who Killed Martin Hannett?: The Story of Factory Records' Musical Magician' or the excellent CD 'Zero: A Martin Hannett Story 1979-1991'
However do avoid 'In the Studio With Martin Hannett' - you will be dissapointed, sorely.
He was a big user of narcotics and drink, and this was to eventually hasten his death at the age of 41. Just before he died he had ballooned to 26 stone (364 pounds) and his coffin could not fit in the ground.
He was the total musical pioneer, always searching to create his own unique sound.
Of many 'Martin Hannett' Stories, one favourite is about when he once fell asleep over the mixing desk, his gigantic belly spreading and pushing the faders across the board, so that the sound went berserk -- the band stopped playing, and woke him up telling him that the levels were all over the place. 'Bollocks,' he replied, 'that's the best you've sounded all f---ing day.'
Interesting too that producer on this cut is Chris Nagle, also later involved with Clayton lads Gabrielle\u2019s Wish and Jane Weaver's Kill Laura - www.flickr.com/photos/hotpixuk/3809868192/

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JP0K7J - Peter Hook helped unveil a new mural of Joy Division bandmate Ian Curtis in Macclesfield town centre this afternoon (March 26).
The bassist and co-founder of New Order cut the ribbon alongside Akse, the Manchester-based street artist who painted the mural, telling those in attendance: I am actually very honoured to be here, and to do this, because to me it's about time Ian came home.
The mural, funded by Cheshire East Council, is based on an original photograph taken by Kevin Cummins at The Factory/Russell Club in Hulme, Manchester on 13 July 1979. It adorns a building on Mill Street opposite Macclesfield bus station.
Ahead of the unveiling, Hook said earlier in the week: I'm watching all the people going down the street and every single one of them is drawn to it.
Some young kids walking down had no idea who he was but now they do. Hopefully they'll listen to the music and get the gist of what we were trying to do as kids.
He said it was an honour to paint the portrait of Curtis and hoped local people were excited about it.
Aske said,Although I've been working on murals most of my life, it's still always an incredible feeling to get to the end of the journey well the end of my journey at least, Akse said. Now it's time for the people of Macclesfield to enjoy the mural, as I know how much Ian meant to so many of them.
Councillor Nick Mannion, chair of the authority's economy and growth committee, said: Before today, I spoke about how perhaps this beautiful mural has been somewhat overdue but now that I'm here seeing it for myself for the first time, I can say without any doubt that it has truly been worth the wait.
I am a huge fan of Joy Division the cultural significance of the band and Ian stretches well beyond my home town of Macclesfield. This is such a proud moment, I'm feeling very emotional about it right now.
Curtis, who was brought up in the town and is buried in Macclesfield Cemetery, was the lead singer of Joy Division

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy F0G705 - This documentary stock photograph shows DDR East German security equipment for spying on citizens in Berlin. The image records DDR or East German security equipment and surveillance material, making it useful for editorial features on Cold War memory, state surveillance, the Stasi, civil liberties, museum interpretation and authoritarian control. Berlin is a city where ordinary street details often carry heavy layers of history, from Prussian and imperial architecture to the Weimar period, Nazi rule, wartime destruction, division, the DDR, reunification, tourism, gentrification and contemporary creative culture. The caption and visible subject detail provide a specific point of entry into that wider story rather than a generic German city view. Buyers could use the photograph for articles about Berlin travel, Cold War memory, street art, museum interpretation, urban nightlife, river sightseeing, architecture, souvenir culture, public transport, pedestrian design or the way history is repackaged in modern tourism. Search-friendly composite terms include Berlin Mitte street art, DDR surveillance display, Berlin Fernsehturm skyline, River Spree pleasure boat, Ampelmann crossing light, Berliner Dom interior, Berlin urban culture and German capital tourism. If the subject is graffiti, it can illustrate the city as a living wall of political humour, youth culture, commercial branding and layered paste-ups. If it is heritage or church architecture, it can support more formal travel, culture, history and education uses. If it is a boat, toy or street sign, it gives editors an accessible human-scale route into a large city story. The documentary style keeps the image credible for web, magazine, guidebook, education, museum, travel, urban policy, politics, design, consumer and social commentary use. Its strength for Alamy search is the mix of precise caption wording and broader Berlin themes, allowing it to be found for both narrow subject searches and.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy ECW4E6 - While a cultural revolution was underway in '60s society, a color revolution was taking place in UK and American bathrooms. Avocado green and other colors were all the rage beginning in the late '60s and lasting through the late '70s for bathroom tubs, sinks and toilets. Over the years, avocado bathroom suites went out of style, but not all of them went away. If your home has a bathroom with avocado fixtures, you have several options for giving it an update.
Retro Avocado Bathroom Suites
If you inherited a bathroom with avocado green fixtures from your home's previous owners, try taking an if-you-can't-beat-them-join-them approach. Embrace your bathroom's retro vibe and decorate it 1970s style. Paint the walls pale green and choose mod-print fabrics for the shower curtain and window treatments. You want the end result to look retro and cool, not dated and dingy, so choose accessories that are authentic, but in good condition.
Search secondhand stores for wall art, vanity mirrors and other period pieces and give them a good cleaning before putting them on display. To complete the look, cover the floor with a fluffy green rug and illuminate the vanity with vintage sconces or pendant lamps.
