Dads have
always known that it's hip to be square.
He listened to vinyl before you did. He drank whiskey before you did. He had a mustache before you did. Admit it: your dad was a hipster before you were! Based on the blog phenomenon of the same name, this book celebrates dads as the original hipsters. Vintage photos of real dads back in the day--in their short shorts and tight tees playing arcade games--accompany snarky captions that at once tip a cap to Dad's glory days and poke fun at modern hipsters.
Featuring tons of never-before-seen content, this is the perfect gift for dads, hipsters, and those who love to tease them! Brad Getty is the founder of
www.dadsaretheoriginalhipster.tumblr.com, which was named a Time Magazine's
Time.com "Tumblr of the Week" and has been featured in Vice and the
Boston Globe, among other publications. He is a copywriter living in San Francisco.
Great for Father's Day, birthdays or any day you want to say "Thanks Dad".
