My Collection of Historical Images for Project Violet and Christine

Below are a fraction of the images that I have started collecting to help me to better write Project Violet and Christine, my queer stand alone literary fiction book set in 1970′s and 1980′s London. I often find myself collecting historical images like these to help me better understand the time period that I am writing in as well as the aesthetic of the book and to better get into the minds of my characters.
