Sketches of Little New York and Broadway Panache
A fragmented survey of early 20th century urban entertainment and social scenes in New York. It notes Art Young and Eugene Field connections, mentions Irish and Hebrew monologists, Leo Kugel’s kitchen anecdote, street beggars on Broadway, a police sting yielding fines, and a child’s bleak joke about factory life, all reflecting crowded, ironic urban life.
