Original – Posing before a sample of beatnik art are Miss Beatnik of 1959 contestants in Venice, California, August 27, 1959
Reason
Great quality, especially the faces of the four ladies in the front & the man with the cigarette. The artwork in the background gives it a surreal quality. By far the highest quality image in regards to Beatnik culture I can find anywhere on Wikipedia or Commons.
