Saul Leiter's New York cabs


Michael Greenberg's piece about the New York School photographers is in July 9 New York Review of Books. Below: some of Saul Leiter's street photographs. When did NYC cabs go all yellow? Must have been the mid-to-late Sixties. When was the last summer straw boater worn without irony on the streets of Manhattan? Mid-Fifties I'd say.
