A rambling 1929 collage describes a New York scene with names, venues, and fashions. It references a teahouse called The Meeting Hones, Waldorf staff, Hotel Governor Clinton, Broadway actors, and varied social types, painting a vivid slice of urban life and entertainment. The piece notes street life along Harlem River, Coogan’s Bluff, and seaside promenades, mingling nostalgia with idle commentary and a closing nod to Deryriah, 1929.
