Can't make the venue? Well put on a record like this Zoot suiter. The Zoot suit culture arrived in Sweden from America via London in 1941 influenced by
Cab Callaway, black style and swing jazz. It is considered Sweden's first working class subculture, in Swedish called Swingpjatt. As can be seen on the stamp they wore their hair long with wide brimmed hats and padded shoulder jackets.

It's curious to see a German stamp depicting John Lennon...
Yay, we have another David Bowie stamp!
I will still sing along to any ABBA I hear.
The outfits of both of these were outrageous. I'm not so sure the zoot suit was any more flattering. So that leaves John Lennon as the winner in the fashion dept ;)
