Yes, .this 1b tho coniei of Broad and Chestnut streets. You don't believe
it? Yet George Washington Camera couldn't lie, even in 1888, thirtv

The endless procession of automobiles so in? east on Chestnut street today and the
two-way traffic on Broad street prove at a glance how essential the motor vehicle &

recognize it as showing the identical locality.
