Buttercup Milk Truck
Bruce Savage recalls the chaos that occurred at Tower 16 on Memorial Day, 1960 in Malibu. Smoke bombs, moonings, alcohol induced vomiting, and more caused lifeguard Kemp Aaberg to call for backup very early in the morning. It all has something to do with Red Pushinger's 1928 Buttercup milk truck.

Granny and Doc
The unbreakable bond of friendship between John Heath "Doc" Ball and LeRoy Grannis saw the two of them through Southern California's surfing pre-history, World War II, and post-war assimilation to civilian life. Their glory days of membership in the Palos Verdes Surfing Club have since given way to commercialism-driven surf culture and group organization, but several photos help us understand the purity of their socio-surfing experience.

Bruce’s Beauties
Timed to the advent of the 50th anniversary of the most popular surf movie ever made, a hidden archive of production stills and photos taken by the director has percolated up through the topsoil. Many have found their way onto Bruce Brown Films’ social feeds. Others have been high-graded into the recent nonesuch boxed-edition art volume, The Endless Summer. Page through and see if these don’t have you wanting to prick up your ear, listening for Wally Georis’ haunting melodica work with The Sandals as Mike and Robert cross datelines.
