Another archival shot

This photo dates from 1972 and was shot om Mulberry Street in Manhattan's Little Italy. The camera was the Leica M-4 with the 50mm Summicron lens and naturally the film was Tri-X.Such displays were possible then. Now the Board of Health would prohibit this. Too bad we must live under this nanny state of mind.
