Second book for B&W series is: Brooklyn Gang by Bruce Davidson
http://store.bookdummypress.com/product/brooklyn-gang-by-bruce-davidson

This is a book of a “gang” of teenagers around Brooklyn, NY, whom Davidson photographed during the summer of 1959. Beautiful adolescents fill the moments of the soda fountain, the tattoo parlor, Coney Island, and late-night basement dance parties where they show off their hair, their sunglasses, their cigarettes, their tattoos and their girls.
