RARE PHOTOGRAPH OF TUFF GONG



This image represent a small segment of a much larger photograph taken around a table in Nana Rita's garden at 56 Hope Road on the night of February 6th, 1979.

It was in celebration of Robert Nesta Earthday and it represent probably the only image of Tuff Gong cutting such a cake.

This photograph was printed the next day on the front page of the defunct Jamaican newspaper, The Daily News, and carried a caption along with my name credit attached.

This photograph is copyrighted to I and as such, the complete photograph will be featured in the book Portrait of a Legend and other Folks.
