Souvenir
From
Broadway
by TRUDE DUB *
Some call it the “Great White
Way," others a “vulgar honky-
tonk area” but to my 11-year old
daughter Miriam, Times Square
at night was a fairy land. Speech
less she stood by my side, her eyes
dilated with wonder, as she watch
ed the 'gaudy, glittering lights
cascading in a giant, everchang-
ing kaleidoscope.
What of it that each dazzling
constellation spelled yet another
commercial product? Such discri
mination does not intrude upon a
child’s enchantment.
A stream of people, disgorged
from the many theatres in the vi
cinity, carried us down Broadway,
past the many shops, open and
doing lively business at this late
hour.
Miriam can never resist buying
souvenirs, in fact she would happi
ly confine all her foreign travel to
the gift-shops in each country. And
what better hunting than Broad
way and what an invitation to the
salesman when you have TOUR
IST written all over you?
My attention was arrested by
the display of some unspeakably
hideous pottery, said to be Danish.
“You a collector, ma’am?” A
silky voice broke upon my con
templation of so much wasted hu
man effort.
“No, no!” I hastened to assure
the salesman.
“Then it’s high time you started,
ma’am, because there’s only a
limited number of these pieces left
and they increase in value each
year.” What a wonderful oppor
tunity for my heirs, I thought,
while making a quick get-away.
No sooner did I escape this per
sistent gentleman when I found
two ‘Dresden’ figurines thrust into
my hands by another, equally
efficient salesman. I nearly drop
ped them with fright when I
realized that Miriam actually
wanted to buy them for me.
“For Hanukah,” she whispered
and suggested that if I advance
the purchase price, she would pay
me back weekly a part of her
pocket money ... I do hope to live
to a ripe old age but a business
contract for 120 years seemed a
little bit unrealistic. The figurines
went quickly back onto the counter
and Miriam forcibly out of the
door.
She was soon comforted when, a
little later, I pointed out to her
a shop much more in her line of
business.
“Necklaces at 25 cents” said the
notice in the window. Inside how
ever, we were told that the neck
laces. were part of a set of three
