Regular Janes and average Joes: McGlinchey’s Tavern is to Philadelphia what the Pink Flamingo is to Buffalo: an old, dank, unassuming bar where people gather to drink and talk, some on their way up, some on their way down.

Supplementing her then-meager income culled from work as a photographer and artist, Sarah Stolfa tended bar at the venerable Philly institution for a few years, during which time she stumbled upon the brilliant idea of snapping pics of her daily customers. “The Regulars” (Artisan, 2009) is the result, and it’s simultaneously simple and stunning.
