Street Scene
Image
View of the central business district, with unidentified businesses, some with false fronts. Automobiles and a truck are parked along the sidewalk. A man and a boy stand at a corner on the right. There is a chicken in the middle of the street. The dirt road stretches into the distance toward bluffs in the far background.
1921
