Harris, Charles (Teenie) (American/Pittsburgh, 1908-1998), Inside of North Block of Western Penitentiary After a Riot, possibly taken in the early 1970s, printed c.2000, unsigned, sheet size 20 x 16 inches, unframed. The Carnegie Museum of Art dates the photo to c.1970-1972, although it's possible that the image is instead from the famous 1953 riot at Western Penitentiary.
