The owner of an art gallery that works with George DuBose (as a dealer of his photographs) emailed us to clarify the debate that was going on in the comments of this post. That debate being: was the cover of The Ramones Subterranean Jungle a real photo, or the handywork of a retoucher?
Conclusion: The photo is real (except for the grafitti that was added on to the cover, of course). Above you'll see two original outtakes from the photoshoot, which DuBose sent to Rock Pop Gallery. You'll notice the shot was taken at the 57th Street Downtown B platform (which is now the F)...if you feel like doing some recreating.
