Seller's Description:
Very good in very good dust jacket. This major retrospective features the work of this pioneer of tabloid photography and showcases the best of Weegee's jolting work from the 1930s to the 1960s. It captures bygone New York at its most raucous, dangerous, and outrageous. Grisly murders, tragic accidents, gawking crowds, along with intimate human-interest and high-society images, are all captured by Weegee's flash. Interpretive essays, an annotated chronology, bibliography, filmography, and a list of exhibitions complete this comprehensive volume.

Born Usher Felling (1899-1968), Weegee earned his name and reputation by always appearing first at major crime scenes, as if a Ouija board had led him to the spot.
