A series of photographs by Bill Butterworth shot exclusively in Times Square in the early 80s. In the tradition of Jamel Shabazz's classic, Back in the Days, THE FORTY-DEUCE showcases the timeless style of New York's first b-boys, out on the town and dressed to impress, rocking fly track suits, Adidas kicks with fat laces, oversized Cazal frames and monster boom boxes. But it adds to the mix the Deuce's own slick pimps, strung out hustlers and the prostitutes, strippers and transvestites.A series of photographs by Bill Butterworth shot exclusively in Times Square in the early 80s.
