If you like extraordinary and incredible works on paper (great vintage photographs, odd ephemera, prints and the like) then my friend David Winter in New York is the man for you. His gallery, "Winter Works on Paper" is one of the best galleries in NYC. I once lusted in a bad way for this painted press photograph, but alas, it was sold. Great things don't hang around long. But, there's plenty for everyone. You could spend a day there and only scratch the surface of his collection. It's a museum where you can buy stuff. [Anonymous press photograph, c. 1932; 7" x 10"] See link to the right to his gallery.

Jack Dempsey's Arm, c. 1920
I have always loved this painted press print of boxer Jack Dempsey's arm (anonymous, c. 1920; 6" x 8"), also from David Winter's gallery. Unfortunately, it too is sold. But we can enjoy the surreal beauty it exudes as the newspaper retouchers from that period applied their craft for newspaper publication. This is an awesome photo.
