Photo from the Manly Era of zippered, striped Beatnik sweaters





I found an old, scratched slide from around 1960, when I was 15, with dark brown dyed hair and a zippered striped sweater.....hardly the 'Fashion'.....Of course, I wouldn't have wanted to be 'in fashion'......or look 'just darling' or 'sweet' or 'cute'......I was 'playing' being a 'Man'.....at that time, boys were always being encouraged to 'be a Man'......I suppose this to be my best effort,,,.....I had 'zero' button-down oxford cloth shirts and 'zero' rep ties and 'zero khaki, cuffless trousers......yes, this was as close as it got in 10th grade!
