There is an awful lot packed into this short film about a local market by local filmmaker Sydney F. Martin, ranging from the mundane to the quite surprising. We see busy clothes stalls where one man is holding up a new pair of trousers for size. Whilst elsewhere, a man in a turban offers a range fabrics to a lady in a fur coat. A market food stall has hanging chickens galore and a sign offers a glass of Sarsaparilla Wine by the glass as a legacy of the Temperance Movement.
