To celebrate the May publication of Paperback LA Book 1, A Casual Anthology: Clothes. Coffee. Crushes. Crime. , photographer Robert Landau who contributed a photo essay to the new anthology, is sharing some of his shots. He’s been documenting all parts of LA and the Southland for decades, and we’re building this photo gallery of some of his pix.
Check back next week for another photo surprise, part of our warm-up to the May, 2018 publication. We’re sharing some pictures that are not in the book, most of them gone now from the cityscape.
