Photo by myself around 103rd Street and Lexington, on the Upper East Side.
A fellow was handing out free papers on the street corner, Thursday morning.
The headline can be seen on the paper on the back of his vest - 'Sopranos' Star Dies'. We've been startled by the news of James Gandolfini's sudden passing, while on vacation in Europe. Gandolfini was the star of the hit tv show 'The Sopranos'.
For whatever reason, Gandolfini always struck me as being a nice guy, regardless of the sometimes very violent character he played. My fiance Mark and I saw him once outside a restaurant and kept a respectful distance.
By the way, free papers are often handed out in subway stations or just nearby. This one is called AM New York.

Le matin, quand j'etais a NYC, j'aimais bien lire les Gratuits (meme si il y a beaucoup beaucoup de Publicité ;) )
The modern day version of the Town Crier?
Yes a tragic death so young.
Great blog you have! :-)
