Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!

As a little tribute to the Haringey of old, here are some vintage pictures of Haringey/Tottenham/Spurs skins and assorted bootboys.

Disclaimer: although the political views of every single individual in these pictures are not known to me, these are no Nazi/white power types in 'skinhead' costumes.

From one extreme to another.. Michael & Peter in hippy year 1968 and in Skinhead year 1969The trousers were white 'Jaytex' - Davis of Tottenham, the local mod, later skinhead outfitters supplied these. I too wore them, especially with red socks and 'Royal' shoes.

Peter's murder was a great loss. On the above link, it states he was a librarian. He was in fact a book restorer, the City of Westminster's chief restorer. He was sent to Venice in 1966 after the floods, to restore the city's most important book collection.

All that skill lost for a moment's hate.
