Just what can you buy on Market Street? …….

Now for me the fun of Market Street is less the big shops and more the pop-up salesmen.

And in that respect, it is no different than it was in the 19th century when match sellers, shoe shine boys, newspaper vendors and hot food salesmen worked their pitch.
