"Harry Kaltman who owns this dairy store at 125 Delancy Street had his whole family behind the counter yesterday afternoon March 22, 1943."

"It was a friendly game of Bocci," circa 1939

"Reclining Nude"

"Girl in Audience Eating Ice Cream"

"Saturday Night, Sleeping," circa 1945

“People who work in the daytime are suckers,” he once said. Before the publication of his first book, “Naked City,” made him famous in 1945, he lived in a cheap room near police headquarters and was said to be so accustomed to working on the run that he once developed a picture of a prizefight in a subway motorman’s cab while rushing back to a newspaper office.

And then there was the NUDIE MOVIE:
The Imp-Probable Mr. Wee Gee

"Sherman Price directed this nudie comedy starring famed crime photographer Weegee, who was later the basis for several films including The Public Eye (1992). With a voice dubbed by Reuben Guberman, Weegee falls in love with a department-store mannequin and tracks her to Europe, where he meets peril atop the Eiffel Tower and a buxom ghost in London. The notion of a nudie comedy starring a photographer best known for bloody photos of gruesome death may be odd, but the film is entertaining enough for fans of the genre to enjoy". ~ Robert Firsching, All Movie Guide
