Ivy League Dandy: Princeton 1956

Inspired yesterday by the confirmation that we will be offering Japanese photographer Teruyoshi Hayashida's much anticipated reprint of Take Ivy (a pictorial book celebrating 1960's preppy Ivy League style in the US) on our shop site at the end of the month, we thought we would share some images from our collection of university yearbooks. The images below are from the 1956 Princeton University yearbook.
