Flip-flops: a regrettable choice of Ivy footwear for over 50 years.
I was about to express my befuddlement until I looked at the date. Nicely done. ;)
Oh, well played, old sport. Now pass me a hank so I can wipe the egg off my face.
Ah, yes, the Bornstein crew.
Nice one. Looks like a fun afternoon, though. At least I hope it was the afternoon.
Good one!!
You ALMOST had me here. Nicely done.
Truly disturbing to see that flip-flops were being worn at Princeton in 1960.
Southern California, yes, but Princeton? So, the decline had already begun then.
Slow clap.
I had to look twice - 1960 looks much like today - nice pics.
I mean, some of them are still dressed nicely.
lol some of these comments...
Not 60's.. flip flops, Indian and African-americans.
Fascinating how upper class Indian americans are carrying some of the sharper dressed traditions today, though perhaps not here. Find your local Anglo-american with shrunken posture, lack of sun, and various pieces of metal stretching his skin at your local Starbucks.
