Golden Globe Retro

In anticipation of our round-up post of the 2012 Golden Globes, we thought we'd showcase some pictures from previous Golden Globes. Think Marilyn Monroe, Dustin Hoffman, Elizabeth Taylor and Grace Kelly. All stars of the old Hollywood era. These images are all sourced from the LIFE archive, which are fantastic for finding scores of old and new photographs.

 Enjoy the trip back in time, and join us tomorrow morning for a round up of 2012's awards. We'll be covering the nominees and winners, as well our best dressed list.
