Unknown Bukowski pictures?

[PhillyDave]

I kid u not, physically that looks so much like my grandfather. He was built exactly the same and only 2 years older than Buk. Similar drinking & smoking habits as well. Had a very shitty father too. It's starling. Pop-E was not a poet although he did say a few choice things such as, "Take the hotel towels. Signal left, turn right. And post-date your checks." Looking like the above pic he used to sit on his chair in his vegetable garden drinking quart bottles of beer and pass out in the sun. If they met they would have been friends...or they would have beaten each other to a pulp. I can't look away.

P.S. - I just noticed I'm wearing the same exact fucking watch, Pop-E's watch.

a pocket watch or a keychain?

I bet it's his knife.

I can't remember having seen this before. I know that it must from Barfly with Faye Dunaway.

It's a shot by Helmut Newton.
In the BSP-edition of 'Barfly' there's a shot by Montfort, capturing Newton photographing this.

That sure looks like a pencil drawing, but there's no larger version of it anywhere.

This one is also in that book:

 

[Black Swan]

it does look like a drawing but it is perhaps an altered photo with a mask. A great image!

Yet another photo of Buk courtesy of that thread everybody had mocked, from the article nobody had read, via the link nobody had clicked on:

It was taken by one Eckart Palutke.

Actually I think I printed out the article and read it at lunch way back when. Cool pic too.

Is this photo already San Pedro or still Carlton Way?

 

[mjp]

Good question. It's the same photo session as the picture that used to be on the front of the main site:

I don't think it's San Pedro, it doesn't look like any pictures of that house, but it doesn't look like any pictures of Carlton Way either.

Could be taken at someone else's house or apartment...?

 

[Johannes]

I always thought Carlton Way, but the bookcase confuses me. It doesn't look like the Carlton-Way-bookcase you see on other photos.

Probably someone else's place.

 

[zobraks]

I believe the last two photos were taken in some place in Europe, Bukowski used to dress that smart only mainly when he visited The Old Continent.

B. & Barbet.

"An exclusive photo of Charles Bukowski and Larry "Ratso" Sloman, at the San Pedro house following Bukowski's wedding, with wine stains on their shirts:"

Larry Sloman was the editor of the High Times magazine.

Found this on a random Instagram page, and saved it because I didn't recall ever seeing it anywhere...maybe from one of the Montfort limited edition books?!

 

[mjp]

It is by Montfort. Taken at Musso & Frank.

There's another pic from Musso in this thread, which was started (apparently) by the current owner of the place.

taken by one Eckart Palutke

The name of the guy sounds German.

Also, the spine of the book he's looking into (as well as the rest of it) looks like the so called 'Blue Book' by 'Zweitausendeins'

All this points to Germany, I say.

Since the photo is in 'On Writing' (p.213), maybe cirerita knows more.

Thanks for elevating the conversation to nearly the level of garbage. We always appreciate a new influx of cognizant, insightful members.

Maybe a fake but I like it anyway....
