Frequently out of work, he cannot provide adequately for his family. His brother Joe offers Davey, 15, a job, which, unknown to Sam who wants him to go on to school, he takes to help support the family. The father grows more and more depressed, but finally, with the $250 he collects from the streetcar company, he tries a new venture: moveable cuff links, made of coloured buttons. Davey sees him on the street trying unsuccessfully to sell his greatest invention. Half frozen and completely defeated, Sam returns home and finally dies. <1h>Language:EnglishNotes:Genre:DRAMADetailed holdings information: -
