I scanned some pics from "Reminisce" magazine (much recommended for all us vintage lovers). Here are some of them for your reference.

Staten Island, late WW2. Note the lack of hats on civilians but several Civil Defense helmets.

Very cool. I subscribed to both Reminisce and Reminisce Extra! not too long ago. I'm just waiting for them to arrive.
