It's entirely possible that you knew a lot of people that looked like this in the seventies but if you do recognise anybody from these photographs in front of Papa Luigi's in Fremantle around 1976, let us know.
Many thanks to Tim Johnson for the portraits:
My wife and I arrived in Fremantle in February 1974 not long after spending a year living in the hills of Florence, Italy. After asking to be posted as a school teacher in Fremantle because we had read about Fremantle being "...a little bit of Italy.", my wife and I explored all of Fremantle, concentrating on the Italian delis and cafes of South Terrace. In 1976 I decided to photograph South Terrace. Now teaching at North Lake High School in Coolbellup, the “Coobi Boys” in my classes warned me about the “Freo Boys” around Papa Luigi’s. Rivalry abounded. This was the pre-al fresco dining era when the “Freo Boys” dominated the footpath and mothers warned their daughters about venturing south of the High Street Mall. I asked the boys lounging on the window sills of Papa Luigi’s if I could photograph them thinking that they contributed to the Fremantle scene. They readily agreed, anything for something different.
