January 16 - April 17, 1993
This exhibition features 16 black and white silver prints of old New York by Harold Roth which take viewers back in time to the 1940s. Included are images of Coney Island in its heyday, summertime on the East River piers, double decker buses and vintage automobiles. Roth, a self-taught photographer, received his first camera from the Eastman Kodak Company at the age of 12 as part of a promotion to commemorate the fiftieth anniversary of the first photographic patent awarded to George Eastman.
