CBOT trading pit photo from 1900


This photo of the CBOT grain pits was taken in 1900 and my scanner couldn't fit the entire photo on but most of it is there, click on the picture for better detail. My copy dates from that era and is on an old cardboard stock. Also note that the tables in the foreground were used for physical inspection of small batches of grain.
