What a fantastic photo of typical college boy looks in 1962. This was nothing particularly special back then, as this sort of look was de rigeur, but as a snapshot of days long past it puts into perspective just how much the bar has been lowered, when it comes to youth sartorial efforts.

Not sure of the exact year, but a fantastic older photo of sussed skins in England.  Can’t ever beat classic style.

While most notable soul girl groups of the mid 1960s were fronted by black women, The Shangri-La’s were a notable exception.  Great looking publicity poster from 1964
