coster (plural costers)

  1. costermonger
    • 1918, W. B. Maxwell, chapter 7, in The Mirror and the Lamp:
      It was nearly eleven o'clock now, and he strolled out again. In the little fair created by the costers' barrows the evening only seemed beginning; and the naphtha flares made one's eyes ache, the men's voices grated harshly, and the girls' faces saddened one.
