A crowd of buyers gathers around a game market stall, with hanging birds and carcasses displayed for sale. Markets like this were a regular part of rural and urban life in earlier decades, when hunters brought in pheasants, rabbits, venison and waterfowl to be sold to households and restaurants. The scene offers a look at how food was bought and sold before refrigerated supply chains made such open-air stalls less common, and at the close, crowded way shoppers examined their choices.
