We stumbled upon a huge collection of these photos for LIFE magazine, all captioned with things like: "Six girls for cover," or "6 Girls In Apt," or "6 Girls In 2 Room Apt"—you get the idea. Basically what we have here is six young women living in a two room apartment in Greenwich Village; most of the photos were taken in January and February of 1954. But what is this? While there are plenty of photographs documenting their adventure (presumably for a LIFE spread), there are also television cameras in a couple of shots... though it doesn't appear anyone had the foresight to turn this into a reality show (it would have been the first!).
We've contacted LIFE for more details on these ladies, and will update if we get more info. In the meantime, feel free to enlighten us in the comments.
