EDITORS COMMENTS
This sepia-toned photograph captures the essence of Steve Brodie's bar, the New York City Tavern, in the late 19th century. The image showcases a bustling scene filled with patrons enjoying their leisure time and indulging in drinks. Steve Brodie himself stands proudly behind the bar, exuding an air of authority as he serves his customers. Steve Brodie was not just any ordinary bar owner; he was a legendary figure known for his daring jump off the Brooklyn Bridge on July 23rd, 1886. Despite skepticism surrounding his claim, Brodie became famous overnight and capitalized on his newfound fame by opening this very establishment shortly after. The photo offers a glimpse into the vibrant atmosphere of this iconic saloon. Waiters can be seen skillfully maneuvering through the crowd to deliver beverages to eager customers. The walls are adorned with vintage decor that adds character to the space. This image is not only a testament to American history but also reflects society's fascination with consumption and leisure during that era. It immortalizes an important chapter in United States' drinking culture while capturing moments of camaraderie and celebration among friends. Preserved within this photograph is a slice of Americana – from its legal alcohol serving practices to its unique terminology like "pulling a brodie" or "doing a steve brodie". This print serves as both an artistic representation and historical documentation of one man's audacious feat turned successful business venture.
