Original Caption:
Teddy Hoff, 9, Hollywood schoolboy, and his friend Paula Simonton, also 9, breathlessly watch space-suited explorers on television. Adding a bizarre touch to the interplanetary pajamas, Teddy wears a"space patrol" haircut, a new fad of the vast and growing legion of juvenile TV space drama fans. The hair is worn close cropped, with a circle dropping into a V at the back of the neck.

I'm so glad I wasn't that big a fan of Mr. T.
I'm fascinated that the way to show your love for Space Patrol was by simulating male-pattern baldness.
Teddy's mom is glad she encased the family sofa in plastic since his illmannered friend keeps putting her shoes on the furniture.
Well, that's one popular fad during my life time that I never hear of.
This must be "Tom Corbet Space Cadet" a 1950's Star Trek. You can Wiki it.

Greg -
Can you please let me know where you found this image? I'd like to use it in an article I'm working on, but need to credit appropriately - esp. since it was published with the kids' names. Thanks!!
Cindy
