EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from 1976, we are transported back to the vibrant world of Teddy boys and their rebellious youth culture. Teddy boy Jeff Jenkins, affectionately known as Jinx, stands confidently on the left alongside his fellow Teds - Bobby Thomas (Rocky), Michael Gough (Guff), and Tony Collins (Zak). Their impeccable style is showcased in their dapper drapes and drainpipe trousers, reflecting the fashion trends of the era. Posing proudly next to their beloved Tedmobile, a Pontiac Parisienne, parked outside their cherished hangout spot - the Fforchneol Arms in Cardiff - these friends exude an undeniable sense of camaraderie and friendship. The car becomes more than just a means of transport; it symbolizes freedom and rebellion for these young men. As they strike a pose with combs neatly tucked into their pockets, one can almost hear the infectious rock 'n' roll music playing in the background. These Teds were not only known for their distinctive fashion choices but also for their energetic jive dances that filled dance halls across Britain. This print captures a moment frozen in time when youth culture was at its peak. It serves as a reminder of an era where individuality thrived amidst societal norms. Alan Grist's lens immortalizes this slice of social history with humor and authenticity, allowing us to delve into a bygone era filled with music, style, friendship, and youthful rebellion.
