Early New York City no number c. 1949 - 1950

"Early New York City no number" is a contact sheet from a roll of 35mm film by Robert Frank, taken around 1949-1950. The sheet displays numerous black and white photographs taken in New York City. The images capture candid moments of urban life, documenting the city's people, architecture, and transportation systems. Frank's use of candid photography is characteristic of his later work in *The Americans*, a book of photographs that has become a seminal work of documentary photography.
