Discover the social and cultural transformation of Britain in the "Swinging Sixties." Launched in 1965, London Life was one of several titles owned by The Illustrated London News (ILN). A reincarnation of The Tatler (1901–1965)—which, from its inception, catered primarily to a wealthy and conservative readership—London Life represented a radical departure from its predecessor. This new magazine endeavoured to "reflect all aspects of the life of London". Throughout its brief existence, it proved adept at conveying the spirit of the "Swinging Sixties" in the world’s "capital of cool". Encompassing nearly 5,000 images, this collection contains all 63 issues of London Life, published between October 1965 and December of the following year.

This collection includes nearly 160,000 images and almost 4,000 issues from The Sphere, published between January 1900 and June 1964.
