A good quiz question is one that gives you clues through which you can figure out the answer, even if you don't know the answer immediately. A trivia question is certainly NOT a good quiz question.

My answer is Stock market crash of 1929/Great depression.
The first picture looks like depression era art, the second the Stock exchange in NY and the third (a movie poster?) talking of black tuesday (martes= tuesday? as mardi=tuesday en francais :) )
My Guess is Black Tuesday (the great depression)
1. Some Painting of it all goin wrong
2. NYSE
3. Martes = Tuesday in Spanish Tragico = Tragedy
I had to google for meaning of Martes..
Nice Question..
Something along the lines of the Crash of the Stock exchange/Wall street crash?
Great depression..
1 - is a painting of some dude depressed
2 - is new york stock exchange
3 - no idea :(
So I forgot to mentions what each means :)
1) I think i saw this relating to the housing market crash.
2) NYSE
3) I roughly translated it to be Tragic Tuesday (using French approximations on Spanish :) )
Hence -- Stock Market crash (1929 and/or 2008? )
Martes Tragico translates to Black Tuesday. If I remember correctly, I have seen the building in the second image on Wall Street. Maybe its the JP Morgan building. The first painting is trying to portray aftereffects of reading news about a financial crash.
So the link should be Wall street financial crash.
Searched online... Answer is the Great Depression
Most of you got it right.
The correct answer is - 'Black Tuesday'.(There are several theories as to whether this was the sole event that actually sparked off The Great Depression although it is widely agreed that this was one of the biggest contributing factors).
Details about the 3 pictures :
1)was a cartoon(Sold Out, 1929) published by Pulitzer prize-winning political cartoonist Rollin Kirby depicting the repurcussions of the Black Tuesday(Stock Market Crash of 1929).
2) is an illustration of the NYSE building.
3) is the Argentinian poster for the 1951 movie called 'Black Tuesday'.
