Western Union messenger, Gerry Cooke, feeds pigeons in Pershing Square, Los Angeles, 1938
- Description:
- Gerry Cooke, a Western Union messenger, crouches down at right in Pershing Square. He appears to feed pigeons at left. About a dozen or so pigeons gather around some seed that lies on the ground at center. In the near distance, a long row of benches passes across the image. A few people sit on the benches facing away from camera and a few stand nearby and look towards Gerry Cooke. Downtown buildings rise in the distance.
