Creator(s): Opper, Frederick Burr, 1857-1937, artist
Date Created/Published: N.Y. : Published by Keppler & Schwarzmann, 1893 August 30.
Summary: Print shows how members of the upper class have made efforts to cut-back during the business panic of 1893; vignettes show a clothing auction of dresses worn by socialites, former streetcar-horses finding a second life as polo ponies, club men drinking from the 'growler', theatergoers abandoning the orchestra pit for upper-level boxes, opening up their yachts for 'sailing parties of the plain people', and hopping freight cars in the absence of 'local express trains'.
