Whilst the appearance of Teds can be traced back a couple of years earlier, 1956 was the true 'Year of The Ted' the year in which they became central to youth culture in the UK and could no longer be ignored. Originally published in 1979 The Teds looks at this phenomenon. A classic of British documentary photography, it is a vivid and absorbing book combining image and text to tell a fascinating story that spans some three decades.
