I use to shoot pictures at 65 MPH as I steered with my knees and adjusted Electric Ladyland with my other hand…

Checker Taxi 1989

Matt Weber — Wed, 29 Jun 2011 15:39:05 +0000

Considering how many Checker Taxicabs I’ve photographed, this picture may have been the best one yet! If not the best, then possibly the most interesting…

An old favorite which I need to re-scan. This is a very old and mediocre scan from a darkroom print. Zoo York made T-Shirts from this photograph a few years ago…

"No Parking 1957"

Matt Weber — Sun, 05 Jun 2011 02:08:19 +0000

Another very old New York City parking sign from the late 1950s…Maybe these signs are below the radar of Forgotten New York, or then again maybe not…

"Downtown" 1989

Hey, this picture might work well on the cover of an LP but CD’s have replaced them years ago. Wait a minute, MP3s are the, no make that MP4s are the format…Maybe I could crop the image a little more from each side and put it on the cover of a book, but Amazon has changed the game with their Kindle, and books are suddenly selling less than their digital counterparts. I guess I could reformat it for the I-Pad, but how long do you think that will be the rage?

How about an “Archival Pigment Print” created by a master of the art of Zhee-Clay printing?

Park Ave. 1989

I keep finding images which I had assumed were not very good and now, over twenty years later, they are starting to seem OK…

Back in my taxi driving days I would always peek out the corner of my eye as I sped past this beautiful gas pump. It was located on the very busy 21st Street and I was usually on my way to LaGuardia airport. Even back in the late ’80s it was unusual to find a perfect example of a 1959 Sinclair pump. Anyone my age will recall their logo “Dino the Dinosaur” The gas stations would give away dinosaur shaped bars of green soap and other silly items in order to compete with all the other companies.

When I first started driving, gasoline was 50¢ per gallon. Cigarettes were 50¢ a pack. Pizza was still 50¢ a slice…
