Internal problems from trouser/belt?
Gentlemen - There have been a few times in the course of my daily suit-wearing when I've experienced a bit of lower-back pain, generally directly at the point where the belt cinches on high-waist trousers. Last week, however, I noticed a pinpoint, coming-and-going pain on my side, again...- VisforVictory

Saving a news photo from anonymity - a "Then & Now" variation.
When I sat at the photo assignment desk at the Daily News, few things would irritate me as much as an incomplete or missing caption on an incoming photograph. Not only did it make it harder to deal with for its immediate purpose, but it potentially jeopardized the picture's long-term value as an...- VisforVictory

"Boardwalk" extras, anyone?
Greetings! Spent a wonderful day on the set of season 2 of "Boardwalk Empire" yesterday. Showed up at the wardrobe fitting in my Magnoli "New Yorker," and the costume person asked the boss "do we even need to dress him??" Of course, I was happy for the chance to try out MORE suits, and I...- VisforVictory

I love my job so very much... This week, in commemoration of the 40th anniversary of Sesame Street, a ceremony was held in NYC opposite Lincoln Center. Many of the characters were present, and I was honored and thrilled to receive comments from humans and Muppets alike. Grover was kind...- VisforVictory

Launching my new-with-a-vintage-twist News Photography site!
A'hoy, gang - Just wanted to announce that I've re-developed my news photography website, and in keeping with my vintage self, have it appropriately deco-styled.

Al Sharpton called me "Dick Tracy" today...
At my usual post today, covering the Manhattan Criminal Courts for the Daily News, Rev. Al Sharpton was due for the start of a trial stemming from civil disobedience rallies back in May. I was in my usual weekly attire, with suit, hat, and bowtie (giving my neckties a rest.) He gave a brief...- VisforVictory

Swell factory crew photo.
Found this panoramic image in a frame with absolutely ZERO information associated with it in an antique store in Maryland the other weekend. I can only assume it's the staff of a factory somewhere. Any ideas on a date range? Posting it in two parts, plus detail enlargements, because the...- VisforVictory
