DescriptionHorse-drawn wagons, carriages and men on bicycles crowd Main Street. The large wagon in the center drawn by two horses appears to contain sacks of coal. Trolley tracks run down the middle of the street. Pedestrians crowd the paved sidewalks on both sides of the street. A row of commercial storefronts, many with awnings, are in the background. American flags hang from two buildings.
