Coachman smoking and eating on his cab, Berlin 1932
A coachman sits on the box of his horse-drawn cab, smoking and eating, his hat trimmed with a chamois tuft. Despite growing motorization, horse-drawn cabs were still part of the Berlin streetscape in the early 1930s, often used as delivery carts or hired carriages. The chamois tuft on the hat, originally an Alpine folk costume element, had by this time also become a fashionable accessory in the capital. The footage is part of unedited newsreel material documenting everyday life in the Weimar Republic through candid street scenes.
