Photograph by Maynard Owen Williams, National Geographic
Parisians walk past lottery and vermouth advertisements on the City of Light s Boulevard des Italiens in 1936. The poster for the national lottery says, "Try Your Luck."
Photographer Maynard Owen Williams had many adventures as National Geographic s first foreign correspondent, including reporting on the opening of the tomb of Tutankhamun in 1923.
