Beside her stall, a market vendor tips out the contents of a bucket while a customer waits nearby. Everyday scenes like this from Berlin's markets in the immediate postwar period reveal the basic hygienic conditions under which trade in scarce food took place. In 1946 the city still struggled with wrecked infrastructure, irregular waste collection and a precarious supply situation despite Allied relief shipments. Such brief observations complement the official images of depots and rationing with the improvised daily routine of market vendors.
