Can you believe it? James Dean in a Coffin, photographed by Dennis Stock 1955
In seeing this you can appreciate the photos of a jocular James Dean visiting a funeral parlor in 1955, taken jauntily enough by famed LIFE photographer Dennis Stock, seven months before the star was killed in a collision while driving his Porsche Spyder to Salinas, California for a race.
Creepy? or perhaps a subconscious view into the future?
