EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a bustling scene on East 149th Street in New York City on August 2,1916. The focal point of the image is a prominent sign for Lawson Pianos, which stands proudly above the storefront. Pedestrians can be seen walking along the sidewalk, going about their daily routines. The busy street is lined with various businesses and shops, creating a vibrant atmosphere. The photo was taken by William Davis Hassler (1877-1921) and belongs to the collection of the New-York Historical Society in the USA. It was originally photographed for Lawrence L. Strauss, adding an intriguing personal touch to this historical snapshot. The image offers us a glimpse into early 20th century America, showcasing not only the architecture and signage of that era but also capturing everyday life in one of its busiest cities. The buildings lining both sides of the street exude an unmistakable American charm. While this particular print does not represent Lawson Pianos as a company or endorse any commercial use, it serves as a valuable piece of history documenting trade and commerce during that time period. This photograph is part of Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection and provides viewers with an authentic visual experience from over a century ago.
