Fred Perry's ashes

There is a little urn below the Fred Perry statue with 'Fred' marked on it. This is the great man's ashes!

Fred Perry clothes are still being worn today by gays. It might be interesting to add this in the clothing brand section. 188.60.132.117 (talk) 16:29, 19 May 2009 (UTC)

Hi, I've heard that Fred Perry was a jew? This could be kinda interesting for the german neo-nazi-scene which uses to wear Fred Perry because they refer to the brand's logo as "Siegerkranz" (crown?)

Removed the skinhead tag. I really dont see why that would be in there, if it should be in there, someone correct me.

Actually, the Fred Perry clothing line is probably most well known in the non-tennis world as a preferred status symbol/costume for ALL skinheads. FYI, most skinheads are not fascists. 'Boneheads' (as nazi skins are also called) make up the the minority of skinheads. In any case, however, I don't see any reason to have a tag connecting Fred Perry to skinhead culture. I've met very few skins who actually know anything about tennis or Fred Perry the man.

BTW, The Federal Republic of Germany did not exist in 1935, so it is inappropriate to use its flag on this page for Gottfried von Cramm. This is a general problem on Wikipedia.

The September 3, 1934 issue of Time magazine has Frederick J. Perry on the cover and a feature story on him. This issue's copyright was renewed in 1962 and is still valid. To use this cover in the article Fred Perry there need to be a discussion about the magazine or the cover. This should be least several sentences long.

The cover and feature story can found at Time magazine's web site: http://www.time.com/time/covers/0,16641,19340903,00.html

The image will need a Non-free / fair use media rationale such as the one found here Image:TimeDec10 1984.jpg or Image:George W Romney TIME.jpg
