At first look, you might think that these pictures were taken sometime in the 1950s, but these are members of America’s Rockabilly community.
Photographer Jennifer Greenburg has been capturing America’s Rockabilly subculture for more than a decade. Rockabillies not only dress like it’s the Fifties, but also drive old cars and decorate their homes with vintage furniture to mimic the retro sets.
For this subculture fashion is not only appearance and vanity. This is a culture of people who live as a community. They don’t go to the mall and buy the image of fifties. Most of them are skilled at repairing and restoring own belongings.
This article makes me very aggravated!!! You claim that someone might mistake these photos as ones from the 1950’s, but, I digress, the photography is far too advanced for the mid twentieth century. The photos are in color which was not available in the 1950’s. Also, photographs were more pixelated back then. I find the photos to be inappropriate and inaccurate for that time period. If you are going to make a claim such as “you might think that these pictures were taken sometime in the 1950s” at least follow through with it!
