Best selection of images I have seen in years.

The Clown and the lady with the flag are truly MAGNIFICENT.
We could do with a few more like her at the moment !!!
 
Thank you for sharing these. I find them amazing and inspiring.

Content aside, their aesthetic represents everything I aspire to in shooting film. They underscore what for me what is so compelling in the straight photograph with a full distribution of gray tones. Pure pleasure to my eye.

I was listening interview with him recently. Ali's wrist photo wasn't staged.
JFK... these days clashes might be on of the reasons for those photos.
 
Thanks for sharing, jmpgino! There's some more fascinating backstory about the portrait of Muhammad Ali's fist here:

I also remember a really interesting article about Magnum's darkroom printer, Pablo Inirio, with marked up photos that show his dodge/burn notes for the final print:
