David Bailey rose to fame as a fashion photographer in the early 1960s, his photographs. He published ‘David Bailey’s box of pin-ups’ in 1965 as a loose portfolio of 36 portraits of the mainly-male fashionable elite that, as the cover description states, ‘belong to Bailey’s own world of fashion, pop music and the Ad Lib [nightclub]’. Each portrait is accompanied by notes by Francis Wyndham. Together, they constitute a celebration of the growing celebrity culture of the Sixties, and many of them have become the definitive images of key figures of cultural life in London during the Swinging Sixties.
Surprisingly, only four of the pin-ups are women, all of whom are models; as the notes explain, ‘in the age of Mick Jagger, it is the boys who are the pin-ups’. Brian Morris was the manager of the Ad Lib nightclub. His tough stance seems to illustrate Wyndham’s assertion that ‘even in daylight, Morris is surrounded by a pale glow of nocturnal health – a semi-physical attribute known in the East End as ‘moontan’.’
