Woman Elbowing an Out of Town Newsstand
1952

A black and white photograph of a woman standing next to a newsstand, engrossed in reading a newspaper. She is dressed in a tailored suit and is holding a small bouquet of flowers. The newsstand is filled with various newspapers from different cities. The setting appears to be an urban street with cars in the background, suggesting a mid-20th-century city scene.
