Photo Dealer Finds A Vintage Photo Album Containing 30 Photos Of A Mysterious Man With Celebrities
People like to take photos with celebs, and that's a fact. Some even collect those photos, just like collecting post stamps or paper napkins. For others, it is work, as they collect them to cash in on them later.
Whatever the reason may be, they give us an interesting insight into the past and human nature. Celebrities are people above else, and they have their fears and anxieties, good and bad days, etc.
Photo collections are interesting because they enable us to directly compare people on them. We can see who is happy to take a picture with his fans and who's simply doing his job.
One very interesting photo collection emerged recently. In it, there were numerous photos of a mysterious young man with different celebrities.
The photo collection was discovered by Dan Barry, an artist and photo dealer. He shared it online and took us on a nostalgic trip down the memory lane of what Hollywood's A-list stars looked like almost 30 years ago through personal pictures of a "mystery man."
The only question that remains unanswered: why would someone discard such a precious collection? Take a look at a part of this collection – we know you are going to love it.

dan_barryThis mysterious young man managed to get his photos taken with celebrities such as Meryl Streep, Will Smith, Nicole Kidman, Robert Downey Jr., Janet Jackson, Jodie Foster, Winona Ryder, Quentin Tarantino, Steven Spielberg, and Clint Eastwood.
The researchers found that most of the photos have been taken at Tina Brown Hosts "The New Yorker Goes to the Movies" event on March 14, 1994, at Hotel Bel-Air in Bel-Air in Los Angeles, California. Our mystery man was spotted a week later at a gala at the 66th Academy Awards in Los Angeles. He seemed to stay in Hollywood's behind-the-circles for some time after that as there are newer shots with Demi Moore, Christina Aguilera, Mr. T, etc.

Dan Barry told the reporters about how he came across these photos online: "I'm always trying to find strange, interesting and extraordinary photos to share with other merchants and photo collectors, that's how I found this collection. I couldn't identify the guy in the photos or someone knowing his identity."

We can’t say if we really want to find out this man’s identity because it adds a certain dose of mystery to the photos. This way, we can create a story of our own.
Was he an employee at an event company, or was he just a fan? It is clear that he had access to all those celebrities. Was he on security detail? What do you think?
