George Roussos was one of Marvel Comics’ great talents. George and I were only doors apart in the Marvel offices at 575 Madison. We shared a common interest in photography. Alas, George was a Canon man, I was a Nikon. George and I often talked lenses and methods. I had purchased a Nikon 35PC lens, with the ability to add distortion to an image that would “correct” perspective, or straighten out converging image lines. George had recently bought a 17mm lens, a very wide angle lens. He was concerned about the look of wide-angle lens’ distortion. So out we went to take pictures of 575 Madison! Across Madison Ave was the recently demolished IBM Building.
