This live auction comprises more than 100 photographs, including icons of 20th century photography such as Parade, Hoboken, New Jersey, Daytona, Florida, and St. Petersburg. Notable images from Coney Island, works from the London Businessmen and Welsh Miner series, striking images from his filmic From the Bus series of the late 1950s, and intimate family portraits are also on offer.
