Crowd Watching Search of Collyer Mansion

(Original Caption) Rain-spattered crowds jam the streets outside the four-story brownstone home of the hermit Collyer brothers as police begin their search of the junk-filled mansion on March 24th. Alternately cheering and catcalling as strange items in the Collyer junk collection were lowered from the roof of the house, the crowd waited to see if Langley Collyer, the surviving brother, would be discovered by police.
