EDITORS COMMENTS
VERMONT: NEWSBOY, 1910. Capturing the essence of early 20th-century America, this sepia-toned photograph by Lewis Hine takes us back to September 1910 in Burlington, Vermont. In the bustling depot, a young newsboy stands tall with determination and resilience etched on his face. With a stack of newspapers in hand, he embodies the spirit of hard work and perseverance that defined the working class during this era. This portrait serves as a poignant reminder of the challenges faced by children like him who were forced into labor at such tender ages. Child labor was prevalent during this time, as families struggled to make ends meet amidst economic hardships. The unidentified boy's presence here symbolizes countless others who endured similar circumstances. Despite his youth, this adolescent vendor exudes an air of maturity beyond his years as he engages in commerce with passersby. His role as a newspaper seller not only provided him with an income but also made him an important conduit for spreading information throughout the community. Lewis Hine's powerful lens captures both the innocence and strength within this young worker's eyes - a testament to the indomitable human spirit even in challenging times. This evocative print from Granger Art on Demand transports us back to an era when every street corner had its own newsboy tirelessly selling papers while contributing to their family's survival.
