BOBBY SOXERS, 1950'S vintage silver print 32 x 26.6cm Stamped with "Please Credit Weegee from Photo Representatives" verso, negative number 3745 inscribed in pencil verso, probably by Wilma Wilcox (Weegee's companion and archivist) Weegee was prolific in his work as, in today's terms, an 'ambulance chaser'. He worked as a press photographer in New York in the 1930's and 1940's, documenting the widespread war between rival Cosa Nostra families during that period. Using a specially tuned radio, he was able to follow the city's emergency service first responders and police and took graphic photographs of crime scenes. The name Weegee, coined as a phonetic rendering of Ouija, was given to him because of the eerily swift arrival at crime scenes following their reports. He also collaborated with directors such as Jack Donohue and Stanley Kubrick, working with the latter as the still photographer for Dr Strangelove.
