The title of the card is meant to be ironic, because the street scene shown here is empty of people and vehicles except that far in the distance something can be seen beside the trolley tracks in the street. The nearest shop on the right is called "The Grape Vine" and advertises cigars and other merchandise. The publisher's number on the back is 4717.
