Little Old New York (1912)
The scenes presented in this picture are instructive and interesting. There are three market places shown, the like of which could not be seen in any other portion of the globe. The Jewish market place gives us an insight into the thriftiness of this remarkable race in the environs of New York. The bartering, the criers, the itinerant peddlers, all are seen here in their glory. Next comes the Italian market. Here again we see the teeming multitudes, jostling one another and bustling to and fro like so many human bees in a monstrously large hive. We gaze on the scene with wonder. But next and last comes the great market place of the world, "The Rich Man's Market," as it has been aptly called. What a contrast there is between this Wall Street environ and the places we have just left behind us! What an object lesson these three market places should be for us, the market places of the poor and that of the rich!
