EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph takes us back to the late 19th century, offering a glimpse into the bustling world of journalism in Broken Bow, Custer County, Nebraska. The image showcases the printing office of the Custer Leader newspaper, frozen in time by Solomon D. Butcher's lens in 1887. In this snapshot from history, we see an eclectic group gathered outside the entrance of the print shop. A teenage apprentice stands proudly alongside seasoned journalists and employees with impressive beards. A faithful dog faithfully guards their domain while a sapling struggles to grow beside them. The exterior of the building exudes an old-world charm with its wooden porch and chimney puffing smoke into the sky. Through a window, we catch a glimpse of what lies within – rows upon rows of typefaces waiting to bring stories to life on paper. Solomon D. Butcher skillfully captures not just a physical space but also an atmosphere brimming with ambition and dedication. This photo is a testament to how newspapers were once created – through hard work, craftsmanship, and unwavering commitment to delivering news to communities across America's heartland. As part of The Granger Collection's Carousel Collection, this print allows us to step back in time and appreciate both the artistry involved in early printmaking techniques as well as the crucial role that local newspapers played in shaping public opinion during those formative years.
