I'm looking for historic images of NYC for a documentary that I'm working on for my group, Heads On Fire. I hope you can help out.
Specifically, I'm looking for images of Brooklyn from 1925 - 1950,
especially images of Prospect Market and Belmont Market in Brownsville
around 1925. I'm also looking for images of the 1595 East NY Avenue area.
I have at the Reference Center for Marxist Studies a huge photo archive with great historical pictures of New York City and, of course, Brooklyn. Please get in touch with me at 212 924 2338 or 212 865 6925. Or E-mail me at
