@scooby those are incredible books. My grandparents had a few of them when I was growing up. 

[scooby]

@shredwin_206 yes, they're all filled with beautiful illustrations and pretty epic photographs...

Every Walgreens (drugstore) here in the Bay Area seems to carry these books as well. The cover for my cities edition is awesome

Very cool early 40s photo

I was pleased to see one of the greatest living American artists in general to be wearing a fresh type 2 recently.

Could be a1942 model 🤔

Especially love the match strikes below the back pocket. Class pair of cinchbacks.

… he came up in some other chat but this Bob Dylan shot from his Freewheelin’ album is a classic.

Maybe doc or some other luminary might confirm or otherwise but are these 551ZXX?

Yeah from the pic mate … but I had something in my mind, some vague memory this had been stated somewhere (maybe another forum). Plus his album was ‘63 and the 551 were ‘61/62?

Anyway I was hoping/wondering if the pic maybe jogged a memory

If they are more photos from that particular shoot it may be possible. Think 551ZXX originally came out around '58 or 59 as the first gen had leather patches.

There were 2-3 images of young men in jail / police station from the 50’s, arrested for being drunk I think, wearing an assortment of plaid, harrington and denim jackets with sneakers and boots….

I can’t find theses pictures and I’m sure I saw them a couple of months ago. I’ve scanned every page. Perhaps the image link is dead or I’ve just missed it? 
Can someone quote it or link the page if you know which pictures I mean? 
Thanks.

I come across this picture every few months or so on Pinterest. This guy reminds me of David Letterman so much at one point I tried to see if they’re somehow related (yielded no results).

Guy on the left looks to be wearing a fresh out of the box Levis 213 with a pocket flap judging by the buttons. Cool photo.
