EDITORS COMMENTS
NASHVILLE: NEWSBOYS, 1910. Capturing the essence of a bygone era, this sepia-toned photograph transports us back to November 1910 in Nashville, Tennessee. The image showcases two young newsboys diligently selling newspapers on a bustling street corner. Their youthful faces reflect both determination and resilience as they navigate the world of child labor during the early 20th century. Photographed by Lewis Hine, renowned for his powerful documentation of American life at the time, this portrait encapsulates a turning point in history. It serves as a reminder of the challenges faced by children who were forced into work at such tender ages. Against the backdrop of an evolving cityscape and an emerging automobile culture, these boys stand as symbols of commerce and enterprise amidst their humble surroundings. Clad in caps that shield them from the elements, they embody both innocence and responsibility beyond their years. This snapshot offers us a glimpse into daily life in Nashville's southeast streetscape during this transformative period. It invites contemplation about societal norms and attitudes towards child labor while honoring those who worked tirelessly to make ends meet. Preserved through time by The Granger Collection's meticulous archiving efforts, this print allows us to appreciate not only its historical significance but also its artistic merit. As we gaze upon these young workers frozen in time, we are reminded of our shared past and inspired to create a better future.
