Re: The Ivy League Style: The Boom Years.
Not strictly Ivy, but the photos come from a different era (especially compared to now) of San Francisco's history. There are quite a few glimpses of clothing, though. Of note: the high water trousers in photo #1.

I came across this post on Reddit. There's just too much for words.

Thanks! I had no idea that gig is up on You Tube. That intersection, unfortunately, is the epicenter of SF's homeless crisis.

89 pages he managed. We had the Internet back then (obviously) but not a fraction of the bullshit that now goes with it. Still, he'd have been carried along with it.

'Lean' could sometimes be maddening. But he had The Knowledge, as it were. This was one of the first threads I ever absorbed on 'Talk Ivy'. Always worth revisiting.
