Newspaper vendor

***** Location: Kenya
***** Season: Topic
***** Category: Humanity

*****************************
Explanation

Newspapers are usually sold like this, close to the houses where people live or work :



with at least the three daily papers lying side by side first thing in the morning (I took this picture a bit later, when one of them had already been sold out), sometimes also some of the weeklies or some magazines too.

When it rains, the newspaper vendor whips out a clear plastic sheet to cover them -- the papers are protected, and the customers can still see what is there.
