1960s photo: Man in striped shirt showing tattoo

‘Man in striped shirt showing tattoo’ by American photographer James Jowers in 1965. There something about this photo which reminds me of Keith Richards (or is it Ronnie Woods?) from the Rolling Stones. Is it just me?

This photo was taken in New York by American photographer James Jowers in 1967. The girl in the foreground looks so fed up – despite having fabulous hair. It looks like she’s waiting for someone. I wonder how long she stood there for…? Source and copyright: George Eastman House Collection: No known copyright restrictions
