“Reports of flying saucers have been received from all 48 states, D.C., Canada and Mexico…”
“Orville Wright, 75, co-inventor of the aeroplane, said the flying saucer craze was ‘propaganda dished up by the Government to support the curent Sate Dept. campaign to get us into another war.'”

Weegee in “70 Photographers Look at New York” at MoMA, in November 1957- April 58.

Even though there are only a dozen photos by Weegee, this looks like an amazing exhibition, from the brick walls to the park benches, from the supersized Coney Island crowd to the salon-style hanging, from the double (yellow?) lines on the floor to what appears to be a men-only viewing room… (Unclear what one of those images is… photos on the floor and/or nailed to the wall?)
