There's a mustache, but this book seems to be mostly images.
According to School lIbrary Journal " Most of the book is taken up with full-color photographs"; "Although there isn't much text here..."

"Coffee table", Art books, and other books consisting primarily of images without a substantial written component (essays, criticism, etc.) may not be be claimed for points.

Can you find another image? it's hard to tell, it looks like it could be a shadow. Going "scruffy" to a formal event in the 50's-60's seems unlikely.

Chaitra (chaitra_ganesh) | 518 comments Will do, DLM! :)
