“Empire Checker” 1988-9

I remember being excited with this view as I wiggled back and forth behind this checker, trying to line up the Empire State Building for this image….Unfortunately I underexposed this frame badly and can’t get a great print / scan from this negative. This view was gone shortly thereafter as the new office building has blocked the majestic “ESB” and I guess I’m lucky to have this picture at all…

Several people have commented over the years that the big guy in the back resembles “Wolfman Jack” one of the more famous DJ’s from the sixties…
