If not, it's an annual drag festival in New York's piers, for those with lots of time, Dynel, and no particular interest in Jerry Lewis. Takes us back to those carefree days of September, Labor Day Sunday, to be exact, when Pier 54 was the site of the last blowout event for Lady Bunny and her cohorts. She's evidently over it--so I suppose these photos are of an historic nature. Lately Pier 54 has served a far grimmer purpose. If you like the Pursuit of Happiness, you can find it here! http://members.tripod.com/wigstuck/ Pictures were taken with an M2 and pre-ASPH Summicron 35 for the most part, with a few Elmar C 90 shots as well. Pictures are (from left to right) Miss Rosa Parks Sausage My Boyfriend's Back (could use a new dipilatory) East of Barbara Eden Patti, Maxine, and LaVerne Miss Mary Special-Kay Summer Melons A fitting pair Hope the glue holds!
