May 8, Happy Birthday to Sir David Attenborough... turning 97 today ! Congratulations to British author, explorer & zoologist/biologist Sir David Attenborough on his 97th birthday. Last year he was so kind autographing a few 1962 photographs showing him wearing his Rolex Explorer 1016 wrist watch. A personal time piece he wore between 1962 and 1972 on different bracelets during a decade. (Photo: MoonwatchUniverse/BBC)

@davidattenborough yes ‘Thee Sir @davidattenborough ‘ has joined @instagram . From his early adventures on Zoo Quest to his present day contributions to help spread environmental awareness he has proved himself to be one of our few national treasures. He’s also an iconic figure in menswear, those 50’s & 60’s Safari styles are still timeless, coupled with his canvas high-tops & an ever present @landrover not to mention the odd baby orangutan, chimpanzee, sun bear or pangolin 🍼👌✨ #davidattenborough #styleicon #vintagestyle #vintagemenswear #vintagesneakers #hightops #sneakers #safaristyle #landrover #landove #landyspotting #zooquest #1960s #ruggedstyle #rugged #dadstyle #formfollowsfunction (at Attenborough Nature Reserve) https://www.instagram.com/p/CFh2SbzjdGN/?igshid=1s1s6erbiyclh

Zoo Quest for a Dragon & Zoo Quest to Guiana - both SIGNED. I considered whether the 3rd picture should be one of the signatures or this picture of David Attenborough. To me the slicked down hair and, looking at it from 2020, the innocence of his gaze seem as ‘other’ as the animals would have appeared to the majority of the readers in the 1950s. Published in 1957 & 1956 respectively. Both conditions: Very Good + & Wrapper: Very Good. . #zooquest #davidattenborough #bookstagram #zoophotography #1950s #firsteditionbooks #firsteditions #rarebooks #booksofinstagram #signedbooks https://www.instagram.com/p/B9bZMnspreX/?igshid=c73zdbg7dark
