Description
Reprint
A black and white street scene features a gathering of many people in front of elaborately themed buildings. On the left, a person in a dark costume rides a donkey, while another person sits atop a camel. The building behind them is decorated with Egyptian-style figures and hieroglyphs, bearing the sign 'ARTOON'S BEAUTIFUL ORIENT' and '15¢.' On the right, groups of people, some in robes and turbans, stand near a building with arches, vertically advertising 'SODA WATER' and 'FINE LINE OF MIXED DRINKS.'
