According to the recollections of several individuals who worked closely with Bill Tracy back in the 1960s, Tracy was a very eccentric dresser. Based on memories from Manfred Bass, an artist who worked as a sculptor for Tracy and was instrumental in the development and installation of Jungle Land on Hunt’s Pier in Wildwood, NJ, Tracy would often wear flowered Hawaiian shirts and tan slacks as part of his casual working attire, and pinstripe dark blue suits when meeting with clients. His normal footwear was generally a worn out pair of loafers. Cool, huh?
