I watched this old cop watching the parade and wondered what he thought of it all. He is scopin out dudes behind here though. The cop at the top of the pic has his hands on his hips...
It took a while before the cops on the scene decided to actually bust up the skaters. Reinforcement showed up and some boards were confiscated. I heard some people even got tasered, but most people split pretty fast and escaped the long arm of the law.

Biogenic products are objects produced by ancient organisms. Many paleontologists refer to these as trace fossils, but they really aren't. Examples of fossil biogenic products include eggs, amber (fossilized tree sap), coprolites (fossilized feces), and spider silk.
Fossilized tree sap (resin) is called amber. Resin that has not been completely altered to amber is called copal (“subfossilized tree sap”). The general term for such materials is resinite.
Copal ranges in age from several years old to ~33,000 years old. True amber ranges in age from a few million to hundreds of millions of years old - as far back as the Carboniferous.
Amber and copal vary in color, but are typically a rich, light- to dark-golden brown. Resinites are quite lightweight (but amber is denser than copal), and show conchoidal fracture when broken. Copal often is, and has been, passed off as true amber.
Amber is valued as a gem material for its transparency and distinctive color. Amber and copal are also valued for the frequent presence of fossil inclusions, typically insects.
The raw copal specimen seen here has no provenance information, but it is likely very geologically young. It has obvious crazing, which is surficial and near-surface cracking - this is the result of evaporation of volatile organics. Amber does not craze quickly or as deeply as copal does (see Grimaldi, 1996).

One of five views showing former doorways (from different angles) inside COP car No. 013140 which was originally built as a 1st / 3rd composite with internal doors splitting it into three sections.
Two sections were for 1st class passengers (smoking and non-smoking) and one for 3rd class passengers (either smoking or non-smoking, I am not sure).
First class was abolished on the Hammersmith & City route in 1936 but the last 19 O stock trailers were built as composites because they were destined to be used with P stock driving motors on the main section of the Metropolitan line.
First class was abolished on the District & Metropolitan lines during WW2 but apart from the removal of the internal doors the trailer cars retained their other partitions.
