Snowy Farr was a road sweeper, who swept the streets of Cambridgeshire dressed in top-hat, tails, shiny black boots and kid gloves. He is pictured here with his white rabbit, also called Snowy. Snowy Farr was a well-known figure around Cambridge for many years and was also photographed by Don McCullin.
