A horse-drawn cart is the first thing to catch the eye here, parked beside a fruit stand where a produce vendor has set out his wares. Markets like this were once a daily fixture in American towns, when farm wagons carried harvests straight from nearby fields to customers on foot and no refrigeration meant most food was bought fresh and used within days. The cart, the open stand and the loose crates of produce show how closely trade in that era was tied to the animals and labor that moved goods. Look closely at the arrangement of the fruit and the wagon's construction for clues about the vendor's trade and the seasons it followed.
