The Pit: Photo Book
Inspired by the 1903 book by Frank Norris, The Pit: Photographic Portrait of the Chicago Trading Floor is the story of successful businessman who casually begins trading, only to be swept in and ultimately ruined by the Chicago futures markets, a fascination “worse than liquor, worse than morphine.”
Featuring 88 pages of lush, color and B&W photos of the trading floor’s most thrilling era along with an epilogue documenting its final years.
