What Was On (June 1968)

I'm busy working on the 3rd Anniversary Show over at Square America. It looks like it'll be 3 or four small-ish shows the first of which is What Was On (June 1968)- the fourth in my series of photos taken off TV. This one is small- just 17 photos of Robert F Kennedy's funeral taken by Martin Johnson (who also took the photos of JFK's funeral that I posted previously. I meant to post these last month for the 40th anniversary but didn't get around to it.

If you like these make sure to take a look at These amazing photos taken by Paul Fusco from RFK's funeral train (NYT Times piece here) as it made it's way from NY to Washington D.C. They're truly extraordinary- if you're in NYC check out the show at Danziger Projects though you'll have to hurry as it closes at the end of the month. If you can't make it to the show, the book is being re-issued next month with a bunch of new photos and will certainly be worth picking up.
