[Prints] [Marshall Field Store, Chicago] Color lithograph. [Chicago (?), ca. 1880]. Period image depicting the Marshall Field Store building (and adjacent buildings) and the rich pedestrian and horse drawn traffic in its immediate environs, likely between 1877 (the year of the construction of the depicted building) and 1882 (the year horse-drawn street cars - depicted here - were replaced by cable cars). See Theodore Dreiser's The Titan (pub. 1914) for an engrossing literary account of the often brutal business machinations underlying the development in the second half of the 19th century of Chicago's street car transportation network.
