Description

A first edition of the photography book Weegee's People.

  • Weegee (Ukrainian).
  • New York: Duell, Sloan and Pearce, Essential Books, [1946].
  • Small quarto.
  • Photographs by Weegee.
  • Rust cloth.


More of the full-flash nighttime snapshots by this paparazzo of the proletariat. Less bloody than Naked City, and more joyous: Weegee’s People is a celebration of a city and its people. From Metropolitan Opera dames to all-night basement jazz jam sessions, the photos here make for a vital book. From the Brassai of New York and one of the first to popularize photojouranlism.
