    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[From the Peacock &quot;pictorette&quot; Post Card Series, Figure 5 features a street vendor selling hot potatoes. They sold their food from mobile tin boxes that had a fire at the bottom to keep the potatoes hot. One account notes that these &quot;baked taties&quot; were &quot;disabled tradesmen and laborers&quot; (Paquat 110). Hot potatoes were sold seasonly during the colder months, from August to April. People would buy these to keep their hands warm. ]]></dcterms:abstract>
