Glass doors and a open storefront let passersby see the barber chairs inside, a common way for a shop like the Market Barber Shop to draw customers from the street. Barbershops of this kind were often social gathering places in small commercial blocks, where men waited their turn, traded news and talked about local affairs. The gallery files it under markets because such businesses tended to cluster near the town market and the foot traffic it brought. Look at the window reflections and how the chairs are arranged, which show a good deal about how the trade was set up.
