Postcards: Carnaby Street 1966

This postcard’s over-amped application of colour (despite the “natural” tag on the back) contrasts deeply with the dowdiness of the buildings and the appearances of the inhabitants of the Swinging London über strasse on a summer’s day in 1966. The disconnect – between projected lifestyle and everyday reality – sums up the 60s.
