Ch. 4

This photo of a bootlegger is an important feature due to in Ch.4 is where Wolfscheim is introduced to us as a shady business man who is found to be a bootlegger which puts into question Gatsby whose fortune is of unknown origins. Meyer is his first name and he is Gatsby's friend he was not the one who got Gatsby started in bootlegging as we later find out in Ch.9 but is his friend and possibly a partner in his illegitimate businesses. This surrounds Nick with questions about Gatsby that he is very hesitant to ask but he is offered a chance to get into business with him and he puts the offer into his mind but secretly disregards it without anyone knowing that he did.
