2 photographs, each stamped and signed by Eileen Adele Hale, the photographer's widow and executor, in pencil on the reverse, 1964 and circa 1965, printed before 1983 (The Animals, pp. 26 and 42; Aquarium: Winogrand: Figments From the Real World, p. 126) (2)

By descent to the present owner

These photographs are in generally excellent condition. The reverse of each print has the Winogrand estate's printing information stamp. 'New York, Coney Island': There is a tiny, nearly imperceptible adhesion in the center. There is a handling crease in the right margin that does not appear to break the emulsion and does not affect the image in any way. 'CGW-CE-163,' 'GW.4.889.4' (crossed out) and 'GW.04.1038Y.EC' are written in an unidentified hand in pencil on the reverse. 'Aquarium': There is a small deposit of retouching at the center left edge and there is a soft diagonal crease across the lower right margin corner. 'EC.04.26.C' is written in an unidentified hand in pencil on the reverse.
