Photo taken by the Philadelphia Evening Bulletin and published December 14, 1951. Ironically the picture includes a Philadelphia Inquirer newspaper billboard and clock in the upper center of the image. Both the Inquirer advertisement, and the Philadelphia Sunday Bulletin sign on the first truck in the line in the left-hand lane feature the comics section in each paper.

I interpret it as being a form of education through collective humiliation. It would have been unjust, if the driver of that bicycle have had snow tires with studs mounted. Let this be a lesson to life's Jack Benny type Skinflints for going cheap



No empathy to be seen here either. Could this be a form of misfortune-initiated entertainment?
