And I'm guessing he was the enforcer for that rule! another wonderful vintage shot.

They only go around in pairs these days. Too risky to do the job alone. Nice one Doug.

Looks like the police officer means business by the expression on his face. You captured the moment perfectly, Doug.

Excellent imagery, superb B&W. He reminds me of Marlon Brando.

Doug - A nostalgic view - one not to be replicated today. The officer's casual looking off camera makes the viewer wonder what else is in the alley besides a photographer. Thad

If I could tell the story in words, I wouldn't need to lug around a camera. ~Lewis Hine The Earth without art is just 'eh'.

Makes me think of Broderick Crawford and the "Highway Patrol," series Doug.
Great vintage capture.

People are like cameras--sometimes they lose focus.

If this was a shot from central casting for a 1950's TV show, I'd say that this guy was completely miscast as the good cop. He has the eyes of the bad guy who gets shot in the back before scene two is over.

TicK nailed it. This guy definitely belongs on "Highway Patrol". Speaking of...I have a question. Broderick Crawford wasn't the most agile and quick looking guy, yet while the bad guy was running at full speed and Broderick was walking at a steady pace, he always caught up to the bad guy and arrested him. How can that be possible?
