New York's Mighty Army of Working Women - A Glimpse into the Hustle and Bustle of Early 20th Century
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photograph, captured by an American photographer in the 19th century, offers a fascinating glimpse into the vibrant world of New York City's working women. The image is part of a private collection and was featured as an illustration in "Around the World with a Camera" published by Leslie-Judge Company in 1910. The scene unfolds at various locations across the city, showcasing these industrious women engaged in different occupations. From street vendors selling candies, cakes, apples, and shoestrings to saleswomen tending to store windows filled with goods like lead pencils and other wares, this photo encapsulates their tireless efforts. We see them bustling near subway station entrances such as St. Paul's Churchyard or Trinity Churchyard while others navigate through busy shopping districts or workrooms. The candid nature of this early twentieth-century photography allows us to witness firsthand the determination etched on their faces as they go about their daily tasks. Whether it be serving customers at restaurants or factories or acting as wholesalers for various products, these women were integral contributors to New York City's thriving economy. As we gaze upon this historic snapshot frozen in time, we are reminded of the resilience and strength exhibited by these working-class heroines who played vital roles within society during that era. Their unwavering dedication paved the way for future generations of empowered women
