E.S.R. Butler, a local printer known today for his postcards, captured this
view of life along Market Street looking south from 9th Street.  On the right
is the Equitable Building, the city's first skyscraper.  The second building
on the left is the first WSFS building at the corner of 9th and Market streets.
Further left, a circular sign for the Garrick Theater blocks out most of the
Grand Opera House's sign.
