EDITORS COMMENTS
HINE: NEWSBOY, 1917. Capturing the essence of a bygone era, this photograph transports us to Oklahoma City in 1917. Three young newsboys stand proudly on the bustling sidewalk, their faces etched with determination and resilience. With knickers and caps adorning their small frames, they embody the spirit of American adolescence during a time when child labor was all too common. Photographed by Lewis Hine in March 1917, this poignant image sheds light on the harsh realities faced by these young boys who were forced into work at an early age. The sepia tones evoke a sense of nostalgia while also emphasizing the poverty that plagued many families during this period. Against the backdrop of storefronts and city streets, these newsboys become more than just vendors; they symbolize youthful ambition amidst adversity. Carrying sacks filled with newspapers, they navigate through a world dominated by commerce and industry. This print from Granger Art on Demand serves as a powerful reminder of our collective history and the struggles endured by those who came before us. It invites contemplation about societal progress and reminds us to cherish our present-day freedoms.
