Mod photos from the Murray Collection

Important new additions to the visual record of San Diego’s mod movement, turn of the ’80s!

“Dean Curtis e-mailed me to inform me that you would like to use some of my mod pics that I have posted on Flickr,” writes San Diego mod pioneer Kirk Murray. “I am not sure how to upload them onto the Che Underground site, which, by the way, is very cool.

Check out the Kirk Murray Mod Collection!

“I have sent two photographs that are not visible on the Flickr site. One is of me and my TV 200, and the other is of Missy Showalter in her parka listening to some swingin’ mod tunes.”

Thanks very much, Kirk, for the kind words and letting us share these great contributions! Wonderful photos of Dean, Dennis Borlek, Steve Foth and many others. Plus, I haven’t seen that Headquarters marquee in 27 years. (Forensics: This shot was taken the week of Jan. 28, 1983, judging from the acts listed.)
