Vintage 1970s Photos Show Lost Sites of NYC's Lower East Side
A quest to find his grandmother's birthplace led Richard Marc Sakols on a mission to capture his changing neighborhood on film.
Our ever intrepid history editor, Benjamin Waldman (the Peter Parker of Untapped?), spotted this MTA Bus with an ad for The Daily Bugle, the fictional newspaper in Spiderman (and other Marvel comics) by the Brooklyn Bridge.
The bus is from the set of The Amazing Spiderman 2 which stars Andrew Garfield, Emma Stone, Jamie Foxx and Paul Giamatti (more photos from the actual film scene on Perez Hilton, where Spidey saves a bus about to flip over). The film is scheduled to be released May 2nd, 2014.
