ST. LOUIS - MOVIE THEATER - A Glimpse into the Leisure of Boys in 1910
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This sepia-toned photograph, taken by Lewis Hine in May 1910, transports us back to a time when movie theaters were a hub of entertainment and escape for young boys in St. Louis, Missouri. The image captures the essence of an era long gone, where children eagerly spent their hard-earned wages on cinematic adventures. The exterior of the theater is reminiscent of turn-of-the-century architecture with its grand entrance and marquee proudly displaying the latest film offerings. It stands as a testament to both progress and leisure during that period. In this snapshot frozen in time, we witness boys from all walks of life congregating outside the theater's doors. Their youthful enthusiasm is palpable as they gather together, eager to immerse themselves in stories unfolding onscreen. Lewis Hine's keen eye for detail allows us to glimpse not only into their world but also into American history at large. This photograph serves as a reminder that even amidst bustling city life, there was always room for childhood wonderment and joy. As we admire this remarkable piece from The Granger Collection's archives, let us reflect upon how cinema has evolved over the years while remaining an integral part of our culture. It reminds us that movies have always held a special place within society – providing solace, inspiration, and endless possibilities for dreamers both young and old alike.
