This print captures the essence of an era defined by power, politics, and entertainment. Standing tall in all its grandeur is Tammany Hall, the iconic home of a formidable political party that held sway over New York City during the early 20th century. The architectural marvel of this historic building is beautifully showcased against the backdrop of bustling city streets. But there's more to this image than just politics. Adjacent to Tammany Hall stands the Olympic burlesque theater, adding a touch of glamour and intrigue to this snapshot from 1924.
