Organ Grinder in 1830s Currier & Ives Print
By Mark Kinsler

Besides the hand-cranked barrel piano, that's an interesting print.
One of the children is sick (very sick, it looks like) and the piano
guy has been summoned to cheer everyone up while she gets some fresh
air.  Medicine wouldn't be able to treat general infections for 100
years hence.  Poor kid!
