On The Right Spot...

There might be a few inaccuracies in this "untapped cities" blog post, http://untappedcities.com/newyork/2012/08/27/murder-is-my-business-a-weegee-walk/
Here is one quick correction:

Screen shot from "untapped cites" blog.
Mud, Sweat & Tears Pottery is at 654 10th Avenue, New York, NY 10036

Screen shot of 1940 phone book (from NYPL).
Spot Bar & Grill is at 651 10th Ave.

The right spot of Weegee's "On the Spot" photo is 651 10th Ave., and not, according to the "untapped cities" blog, the Mud, Sweat & Tears Pottery place at 654 10th Ave...

This is the scene today:

 The right spot.

Weegee's Bare...

...Ladies.

Weegee as judge in a nude beauty contest... in My Bare Lady (1963) directed by Arthur Knight.

-Judge: "This is the first time I've ever judged a beauty contest."
-Weegee: "Oh, don't worry about it. Men are always judging women anyway. So, this should be right up your alley..."

My Bare Lady is available here. It might be the best $10 you've ever spent... no, the second best $10 you've ever spent, after Shangri-La (1961)... no, the third best $10 you've ever spent, after The Imp-Probable Mr. Weegee (1966)...
