EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Procurement Personnel, between 1910 and 1920" by Harris & Ewing, offers a glimpse into the world of bureaucracy during the early 20th century in the United States. The image features a group of dedicated office workers, both male and female, engrossed in their tasks at hand. The women, dressed in elegant blouses and skirts, are seen carefully sorting through papers and documents, while the men, wearing suits and ties, are busy on the telephone or poring over files. What sets this photograph apart is the presence of electric fans, a testament to the era's growing reliance on electricity. The handheld fans, a common sight in offices during the summer months, add a touch of elegance and sophistication to the scene. The photograph was likely taken inside an office building, perhaps in Washington D.C., where Harris & Ewing had their photographic studio. The photograph captures the essence of the bureaucratic process, with its focus on paperwork, organization, and communication. It also highlights the gender dynamics of the time, with women often relegated to support roles in the workplace. The photograph is a valuable addition to any collection of American history, offering a unique perspective on the daily lives of office workers during the 1910s. This photograph, taken by the renowned Harris & Ewing studio, is a testament to the rich history of American bureaucracy and the evolving role of technology in the workplace. It is a still image that tells a story of a bygone era, capturing the essence of a time when paperwork and communication were the keys to getting things done.
