Title: Sanitation Police Officer Issuing Ticket to Unidentified Man
Authors: Unknown
Keywords: Trash and Transformation
Litter
Officer, sanitation police
Uniform
Issue Date: 19-Oct-2007
Abstract: A scan of a photograph of a sanitation police officer issuing a ticket to an unidentified man next to a large pile of empty cardboard boxes
Description: Source: Robin Nagle. Original photograph is black and white, approximately 8" X 10". Photograph was found in a collection of other photographs labelled "Litter Lens." The collection of photographs as a whole documents violations of the Department of Sanitation's rules about the disposal of litter. This photograph is not dated, however, several of the other photographs were dated throughout the year 1980. This photograph documents a sanitation officer issuing a ticket or summons to an undentified man, presumably because the litter next to the right of the officer belongs to the man receiving the ticket or summons, and because the placement of the boxes violates a Department of Sanitation Rule about the disposal of litter. The officer's uniform resembles that of the New York City Police Department.
