Mister Rogers in a cardigan sweater

Mister Rogers poses in his signature cardigan sweater and sneakers in this 1985 photo from the PBS show Mister Rogers' Neighborhood. The show, first created and hosted by Fred Rogers in 1962 under the name Misterogers, ran in various forms from then until 1976, and then again from 1979-2001. Fred Rogers was born in 1928, so he turned 57 the year this photo was taken.
