An early Christmas card with an image that would probably be considered insensitive nowadays.
The Fuller Building or as it is better known, the Flatiron Building, is located in the borough of Manhattan, and was one of the tallest buildings in New York City upon its completion in 1902.
... the Flatiron Building was nicknamed Burnham's Folly. The building's cultural legacy is a little more interesting and has passed into the local social consciousness as a fable.It is said that the building created unusual eddies in the wind which would cause women's skirts to fly around as they walked on 23rd street. This attracted throngs of young men who gathered to view the barelegged spectacle. Police would try to disperse these knots of heavy-breathers by calling to them 23 Skidoo.
