A "robot" at Pier 39 in San Francisco. This person would stand absolute still for several minutes at a time. When money was placed in his jar, he would move like a robot to the beat of the music and then pause again for many minutes. After a while, more "robots" appeared around the area. These people would stand so still for so long that you'd swear they were manakins!
The photos in this slide show were taken in the mid-1990's by Steve Grande on his Amtrak travels throughout the nation. The size of the photos is purposely smaller as disk space was expensive and download speeds were slower at that time.
