“On the Roof” and in Lieutenant Parker’s Office


Screenshots from Naked City, “The Night the Saints Lost Their Halos”, Season Three, 1962.

A pair of Weegee photos, “On The Roof,” August 1941 (and perhaps the Tresca murder, January, 1943), sandwiched between Paul Burke and Horace McMahon, have a starring role in several episodes of the Naked City T.V. series. They’re on the bulletin board in Lieutenant Parker’s office… (They also appear in the squad room, displayed in almost the exact same way…)
