Yeah, I tell you, we grew up with some real weirdos everywhere you looked…

The resident weirdo for the entire nation was Maynard G Krebs on “The Many Loves of Dobie Gillis.” He adopted the “beat” persona, but wasn’t that weird looking. But nobody dressed like a slob like that in the 50s and the first half of the 60s.

We had “greaser” culture that didn’t conform, but they were largely restricted to big cities…

Maynard G. Krebs,
I remember His four Letter

Wasn’t Flatbush Greaser central in NYC? I think it was the Bronx.
