The image, captured by an unknown photographer and available through Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a glimpse into the daily life of these itinerant traders who sold a variety of goods, including fruits, vegetables, and other wares, from the backs of their carts or baskets. The photograph features a man dressed in typical coster attire, wearing a red scarf around his neck and a hat adorned with a large, colorful feather. He is intently calling out to potential customers, his voice cutting through the cacophony of the busy street. In one hand, he holds a basket brimming with fresh vegetables, while the other hand gestures towards his goods, inviting passersby to make a purchase.

Overall, "Victorian Scrap -- Coster" is a captivating and evocative image that transports us back in time, inviting us to explore the sights, sounds, and stories of Victorian England.
