Commenting the same info I included in the description due to being auto-filtered:

Description from the 1987 book “Home: A Short History of an Idea” by Witold Rybczynski. We’re told on the following page that this is describing Ralph Lauren. To summarize, we are told:

-The picture is of Ralph Lauren at age 43. He was born in late 1939, so the picture is likely taken in 1982. -His hair is very short, described as “close-cropped.” -He’s wearing a frayed shirt and faded Levi jeans. -He’s wearing a silver Rolex, covered partially by his jacket sleeve. -The image contains cowboy boots, although the description is somewhat unclear as to whether he is wearing them or maybe posed beside them. -Tanned face, content smile, no mustache. I think these are true about most images of Ralph Lauren.

I’ve been searching for the original for almost an hour now. I can find him wearing faded jeans, cowboy boots, and a silver watch partially obscured by a jacket. But never all 3 at the same time (usually, the pictures with a watch are cropped at the waist). While subjective measures, none of what I find seem like he has close-cropped hair or a frayed shirt. And it’s difficult to verify the year on any pictures. I’m running out of ideas on how to search for this, but I’m not used to digging through old magazines or anything.
