Description
A Baltimore tradition since the 19th century, the Arabbers or A-rabbers derived from "street arabs" probably not an acceptable name these days, but history being history that's their name. I haven't seen one of these in a long while and I presumed they had ceased to exist. But on Friday last here's one on Charles Street continuing the tradition selling watermelons bananas etc. I managed to get just this one shot and for my reference, without any people. I'm sure that this way of life and vending will soon be extinct, making this a collectible vision.
