Dealer Oklahoma Street Car Terminal Tobacco Waiting

EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment in time from the bustling streets of Oklahoma City, Oklahoma in the summer of 1939. The scene takes place at a streetcar terminal, where a tobacco dealer eagerly waits for the motorman to arrive. The dealer, dressed in a crisp shirt, suspenders, and fedora, clutches a box of tobacco products under his arm, ready to make a sale. His expression is focused and determined, as he scans the horizon for any sign of the motorman or the approaching streetcar. The motorman, in turn, is shown standing at the entrance of the terminal, his back to the dealer, as he checks his watch and adjusts the strap on his uniform. The motorman's expression is calm and collected, seemingly unfazed by the tobacco dealer's eagerness. The streetcar behind him, with its advertisements for various products and destinations, serves as a reminder of the constant flow of activity and commerce in this American city. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, providing a window into the daily routines and interactions of people in a bygone era. The tobacco dealer's persistent pursuit of a sale, combined with the motorman's unwavering focus on his duties, highlights the hustle and bustle of urban life in the United States during the 1930s. The image also speaks to the enduring nature of certain businesses and industries, such as tobacco sales, which continue to thrive in various forms today.
