It was probably more common then. Men then were generally more groomed overall. If they did have a beard or mustache it was probably trimmed.

By the late 60s, and especially in the 70s, that started to change. Later it went back the other direction, but not as clean as it was in the 50s and 60s.

It just wasn't the thing to do. Fads come and go with new generations.

Probably depends how you were dressed. If you were wearing work clothes, people would consider you to be an hourly Union worker or something like that. if you were wearing a suit , they would think you are some guy who decided to grow a beard. If you were wearing shabby clothes, people would think you were a bum.
