The Henry Clay Frick Home in Manhattan

Mary Clark visits two separate collections displayed at Manhattan Museums, which share a common thread through the American Labor Movement.

Walking through the collections of the Henry Clay Frick Home and the Tenement Museum in New York City, Mary observed different perspectives presented from the early 1900's workers point of view, and that of the wealthy and the elite of the era.
