Yes, good catch Ann with the date.

They are interesting as a record of the time, as any snapshot of the
sort is. But otherwise, they are not very good. To me they are
interesting because those are the very streets where I shoot every
week.

They are taken with "special long roll cameras", according to the
site--probably some sort of movie camera I'd guess. Also this i a
street photographer, in the sense of a guy who takes your picture in
the street and then sells it to you for 50 cents. He wasn't going for
art.
