A black and white photograph of an inmate sleeping in bed with pornographic photographs and posters tapped across the walls.
From "The Joint" Collection photographed at the Colorado State Penitentiary in 1974.
The Joint is inmate slang for prison. In December 1974 I was granted unlimited access to the Maximum and Medium Security Prisons at the Colorado State Penitentiary in Canon City to shoot this documentary.
