A LION IN YOUR LAP - This iconic Life magazine photo was snapped by J.R. Eyerman at the Paramount Theater, Hollywood, California on November 26, 1952 at the opening of BWANA DEVIL, the first color feature film in Natural Vision 3-D. Advertising posters for the visual realism of the jungle adventure’s dimensional process would put a “lion in your lap” and “ a lover in your arms.”
