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 “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.
