One photograph a month, never seen before

Jimi Hendrix, inches from Ronnie's lens. This frame has sat in a box since the 1960s. Move your cursor over it, or your finger, to see it.

Half a million images are still in boxes. Each month Ronnie opens one. Leave your email and it comes to you first, with the story behind it.
