Ruined Potato Tray from Bathhouse Theft

A splintered wooden tray from the hot potato seller's display, either overflowing with steaming potatoes or holding a single battered potato, depending on scene perspective. The tray's side rail is cracked from Rudge's violent grab during the miners' brawl outside the bathhouse. The once-communal refreshment becomes trampled in the mud as the riot erupts, with potatoes rolling across the packed earth under the gas lamps. The tray's ruin marks the first visible crack in the Master's control over the mining community.
