From the Peacock "pictorette" Post Card Series, Figure 9 shows "costermongers" on an animal drawn cart, selling fruits and vegetables. During the Victorian Period, there was a great many of them, so competition was fierce, typically using chants, and other tactics to be heard. Costermongers belonged to the lowest classes of society, but still had their own hierarchy of sorts. Costers with animal drawn carriage like in this view were considered more well off than those that sold their goods from baskets. Additionally, costers were known for their bright and colorful clothing, heavy use of slang, and negative sentiments towards police officers. The view then of Figure 11 appears to reference negative, class based attitudes towards costermongers.

From the Peacock "pictorette" Post Card Series, Figure 6 features a crossing sweeper asking for gratuity from a lady near Trafalgar Square in London, England. Street sweepers would clear a path ahead of a person in exchange for money, and were a common site in cities throughout Europe. Cities at the time were very dirty due to horse-drawn carriages and overcrowding. Typically it was a low class child, and many considered them to be a nuisance. One account describes street sweeping as "one of those occupations resorted to as an excuse for begging" and it was punished with imprisonment (Mayhew 465). Trafalgar Square, located in the center of the city, features Nelson's Column in the center. Four lions surround Nelson's Column. Early construction of the square began in 1840, and Nelson's Column was completed in 1867. References A related resource that is referenced, cited, or otherwise pointed to by the described resource.

From the Peacock "pictorette" Post Card Series, Figure 3 features a girl offering a flower to a gentleman outside of Westminster Abbey. Flower girls moved up and down the streets with heavy cane baskets full of flowers. Henry Mayhew described two types of Flower Girls in his 1861 report on London Labour and the London Poor. The first, considered a "better class" of flower girls, worked very hard in wealthier areas, giving the money they earned to their parents. The second, were women who dressed coquettishly and took to the street later in the night, near theaters and casinos. This type would use selling flowers as a pretense to meet men for “immoral purposes”, and gave flowers girls a negative stereotype.
