Vintage Photo - paire 111 | Spiral Notebook - Ruled Line | “Ink the Past. Inspire the Future.” – Where vintage pride meets modern purpose.

Bold. Intimate. Unforgettable. The Vintage Photo - paire 111 Spiral Notebook captures a fleeting yet powerful moment of joy and affection between two young African-American men, sharing a kiss outside a storefront window—likely in the 1950s or early ’60s. Dressed in stylish jackets and ties, they lean into each other in defiant tenderness, while a third man in the background smiles with radiant, knowing pride. The restored, colorized image bursts with life, light, and legacy.

Framed by soft blue flourishes on a matte black cover, this ruled-line notebook becomes more than a space for ideas—it becomes a tribute to visibility, love, and the unshakable truth that Black queer affection has always existed, even when the world refused to see it.
