- Newspaper assignment sheet attached to print verso identifies photographer, W.A. Bridges, Jr.: "Urban blight is turning Sweet Auburn sour. Once, a model of black success, plans for revitalizing Auburn Avenue never materialized. And now men like 88-year-old W.L. Calloway, who was around when Auburn Avenue prospered, walk around Auburn Avenue wondering what happened to the good ole days. [...] W.L. 'Bill' Calloway stands in front of his Auburn Ave. business as he is interviewed." Caption: W.L. Calloway, 84, helped turn Auburn Avenue into a center of black commerce and community life decades ago, but wonders if current revitalization plans will succeed." Caption date-stamped: "Thu Apr 16 1992 J C."
