FOUR TOPS, THE (ca. 1965-75) Set of 7 photos

Detroit: International Talent Management, [ca. 1965-1975]. Set of seven (7) vintage original 8 x 10″ (20 x 25 cm.) black-and-white print still photos, one trimmed in bottom margin, another with one blank top corner clipped off, with stamps or stickers on back of a photo agency (neither of which show through on the front), overall NEAR FINE.

The Four Tops was a vocal group that helped to define the famous Motown sound of the 1960s, with such classic songs as “I Can’t Help Myself (Sugar Pie Honey Bunch)” and “Reach Out I’ll Be There”. Originally founded as the Four Aims in 1953, with baritone Leon Stubbs as their lead singer, the Tops stayed together for over 40 years without a change in personnel.
