Folks:

I came across this interesting blog a few days ago - the author posts
scanned articles and photos from old magazines like Madhuri, Sushma,
Dharmyug, and various comics apparently from his collection. Here are
two nice posts:

1. A truly interesting and hilarious review of Johny Mera Naam (1970)
along with the film release ad of Tere Mere Sapne (1971) - this ad
features lines from one of my all-time top favorite SDB songs 'hey
maine qasam li'. I still remember the same ad from some 1971 issue of
Filmfare (with the same lines of the song printed in Hindi):

2. This link features some truly rare photos of Kishore Kumar along
with a quiz on him. I never saw those KK photos before; not sure what
magazine(s) the author got them from. Plus, a rare photo of an
incredibly gorgeous Zeenat Aman singing 'raqqasha mera naam' (The
Great Gambler, 1979) - I know this photo is from 1975 when the song
was shot in Beirut, Lebanon. And a few rare photos of Amitabh
Bachchan:

First one ( drinking tea ) is from Filmfare ( May 24 1957 ). Rest are
from Vishwas Nerurkar's anthology ( though a few of them are from some
magazines, which I cannot connect now ).
