During the early 60’s, surfing took off around the world. It was during these days that my father, Jim Driver, started getting interested in photography. During the day, Jim caught rides to the beach and photographed many of Southern California’s surfing inovators. At night, in his darkroom, he carefully developed his photos into classic images that captured the 60’s style.

Bob,
I lived in Lakewood during the 50's and 60's and went to Lakewood High. Moved to Seal Beach after I graduated. I have a photo of myself surfing HB Cliffs around 1969. Just click on my name. Surfed Seal Beach Pier, the Jetty, and Ray Bay almost every week day during the summer for many, many, years.
Good to see these old photos as they bring back memories. The trunks to wear in those days were definitely Kanvas by Katin.
Joe - Thanks for dropping in. My Dad, Jim Driver, went to Lakewood High also. Graduated '63. Your paths may have crossed.
Katins are still popular today.
Thanks, Bob D.
