One of my favorite websites for reference photos is Shorpy.

I see that they posted this one and I just love the old radio equipment.

The latest stop on our circa 1900 walking tour of New York: "Cab stand at Madison Square." Detroit Publishing Co. glass negative.

From the comments section below the photo:

You would have no problem finding that same expression of hostile aloofness on the streets of Manhattan today.

Shorpy has eaten away days and days of my time. I have a 1.2 gigabyte folder filled with all the images, and have them constantly rotating as my desktop background Smiley
