DESCRIPTION
Caption by Homer Yasui: "It looks like Kay, Ches and Min [Yasui]--and Roku in front, sitting on the ground--just had had bozu haircuts. A 'bozu' is the familiar term for Bonsan, a Japanese Buddhist priest, who...always had a shaven or closely cropped head. For many years, Dad [Masuo Yasui] used to cut his boys' hair. He was never any good at it and although it may have been very functional, it was never, ever, a thing of beauty."
