Postcard Punk

Back in the 80's tourists started to take a lot of pictures with punks. This became a well known phenomenon and tourists would seek out punks from certain locations.

It became a source of income for some punks. Even today you can still find Postcard Punks at Piccadilly, though for many it's more cosplay for money than actual punk lifestyle.

Leo always had beer money, he spent his summers in London as a postcard punk.
