It wasn’t difficult to tell visitors from ‘eighty-sixers. Visitors were the<\/b> ones with the round mouths and rounder eyes and steadily decreasing bankrolls. <\/b><\/p>\n

Like refugees from Grandma’s attic, they were decked out in whatever the<\/b> Outfitters had decreed the current “look of the century.” Invariable struggles<\/b> with unfamiliar bits of clothing, awkward baggage arrangements, and foreign<\/b> money marked them even faster than an up tilted head on a New York City<\/b> sidewalk. <\/b><\/p>\n
