Description
Colorized photo from 1953, December 29th
Original title: Times Square at night III
Photographer: Gottscho-Schleisner
Location: 200 W 46th St, New York, NY
It's pictures like these that I'm glad people took so many pictures and movies of this location. Because lights look white no matter what color it is.
I rarely get to do images from the 1950's, most of it is from the 1940's. I think this was shot because the company must have made one of the signs. Because this is from the 50's, color pictures existed then, and I was able to find the colors for 90% of the items here. The only one I couldn't find an official image for was that giant movie poster about the girls. But I did find other posters and just colored from there. Many colors came from color movies where I did freeze frames on.
It's hard to know what is left in this shot, because today's buildings are totally covered in signs, that you can't see the building. But I do think some are gone.
That big red sign is a spaghetti restaurant, I think that's all they served. They still make pasta today.
