They've been exhibited as one-offs here and there, but no compendium has been published, sadly. No, it’s pretty rare to come across Winogrand contact sheets.

Still, it makes me curious to see others from the roll either before or after this shot. Do you have any more for context?

In 1971 if you wanted to buy some LSD, you went here, to the Bethesda Fountain in Central Park, and there was still plenty of Orange Sunshine available for $2 a hit (Free, if you were a cute girl) If you look at his eyes and the way he's groping with his hands, it's probable that he was hallucinating so much, he was virtually blind. I saw this happen many times when someone took one hit too many. The first thing they'd do was take off all their clothes... The "Streaking thing" started around 1974 when I was in high school, and I never saw anyone streaking who didn't have a smile on his or her face, unless they were about to be tackled by some cops...
