Another SHORPY Gem! Cadillac Square 1903

[EastsideAl]

Here's another one today! http://www.shorpy.com/node/18521?size=_original#caption

And there are your cars. All over the place only about 15 years after the previous photo [[the big sign seems to make it pretty obvious that this is from the couple of years of U.S. involvement in WWI).

Precious little left today from this photo, including the picture's main subject. Although the building it was taken from is still standing and in use.

Oh, and doesn't "Cheating the Public" seem like a mighty strange advertisement for a theater?

That Enid Markey sure was something else in that one.



And here's the New York Times review, which characterizes it as a "capital-versus-labor melodrama."
