EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken by William Davis Hassler between 1910 and 1921, transports us back in time to the bustling streets of early 20th century New York City. The image showcases a row of lit up store fronts adorned with vibrant advertisements for Smiths Stetson Hats, Shoes, Liquors, and more. As night falls over the city, these illuminated shop windows create a mesmerizing atmosphere that captures the essence of urban life during this era. The glowing lights reflect off the glass panes, giving each storefront an inviting allure. Passersby would have been drawn to these displays showcasing fashionable hats from Smiths as well as stylish shoes and fine liquors. The architecture of these buildings adds to the charm of the scene. The facades are intricately designed with attention to detail that is characteristic of American architecture at that time. Each window tells its own story through carefully arranged merchandise. This snapshot offers a glimpse into a different world - one where shopping was an experience filled with anticipation and discovery. It reminds us of how much has changed over the years while also highlighting certain timeless aspects such as fashion trends and advertising techniques. Preserved by the New-York Historical Society's collection, this photograph serves as a valuable historical document capturing not only specific businesses but also providing insight into daily life in Manhattan during this period.
