A pushcart produce market fills the frame here, with its vendors' carts lined along a city street and parked cars waiting at the curb. Open-air markets like this were a familiar part of working-class neighborhoods in the early 20th century, when families bought fruit, vegetables and staples from sellers who wheeled their goods in each morning. The mix of handcarts and automobiles in one scene captures the moment when horse-drawn and motor traffic shared the same streets. Look closely at the carts and the goods on display to see how vendors arranged their stock for passing shoppers.
