Samuel B. Clark Gaslight Square Collection

The Samuel B. Clark Gaslight Square Collection contains 59 images collected by Clark that document Gaslight Square before, during, and after its heyday as a premier entertainment district. Photographs taken while the neighborhood was a popular destination show customers and entertainers at Montileone?s Cafe, Three Fountains, and other establishments, as well as interior and exterior views of Montileone?s and several street views showing various businesses. Photographs taken before the area?s rise to prominence show an Olive Street Antique Dealers Open-Air Street Fair with antique displays arranged on the sidewalk in front of each store. Photographs taken several decades after Gaslight Square?s decline show crumbling and dilapidated buildings.
