Diane Worland has a treasure trove of old photos of New York City, mostly taken in the 1970s. Click through for a look at her street shots from 1977, when everyone was drinking TAB or wearing a Nixon mask.

This was the year the I ♥ NY campaign was used to promote tourism to the city, the year of the blackout, the year of that New York Airways disaster, the Bronx burned, George Willig climbed up one of the WTC towers, and the Son of Sam was terrorizing the city.

I used to have one of those things the cats are on when I was a kid. Today the woman dragging those around would be sentenced to 10 years in prison for cruelty to animals.
