Wall Street and the nouveau poor
In a bird’s-eye view of Wall Street, an innocent lamb is standing in the middle of the deserted financial district. The surrounding vignettes show a society matron serving a banquet of hot dogs; a man buying eggs cheap, then trying to sell them to a stockbroker for 50 cents a dozen; an elderly man drinking wine with a beautiful young woman “Before the War,” “And Now” disgruntled and at home with his wife; and three businessmen sitting on steps outside Federal Hall, quaffing lunch from a “full dinner pail.”
