Hot Child in the City
America Has Talent...the Gong Show Years. I'd lose the cane kid, it's a sure way to learn the "Popsicle Effect' in a gym class locker room.
At least no one will steal his shoes...take them and throw them up over the telephone pole lines, yes, but not steal them to wear.
...but you cut off part of the right side of the ad:
Nostalgia just ain’t what it used to be.

Actually, other than the bow tie (and cane??) that's exactly how I dressed as a kid...with pics to prove it. All mockery aside, this WAS fasionable in the 70's!

just think that 40 years later this kid is the dancing old man from those Great Adventure commericals

Is it just me, or does that kid bear a strange resemblance to Rupert Grint (who names their kid Rupert these days?!?) from the Harry Potter movies?
It's exactly the sort of thing a Wizarding kid would wear, trying to pass as a Muggle, and FAIL miserably!
On a side note: Saddle shoes for boys? That's something that Lucy Van Pelt would wear! The only reason she got away with it was because she'd be the one kicking arse if someone made fun of her.

I love action shots! Amazing, how they captured him on his way to the Mummification Studio so he can be preserved in this outfit forever... (I hear the first step is to pull the brain out through the nose with a long hooked rod).
