EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative black-and-white photograph, two young newsboys, Richard Green (with hat) and Willie (who claimed to be 8 years old), sell newspapers on the streets of Richmond, Virginia, in 1911. The image captures the essence of traditional labor in America during an era when newsboys were a common sight in urban areas. Richard, with a hat shielding him from the sun, looks intently at the camera, his expression serious and determined. His posture is confident, and his gaze suggests a sense of pride in his work. In contrast, Willie, with a slightly askew cap, appears more carefree and playful. He looks away from the camera, perhaps a bit shy or distracted, and his stack of newspapers is precariously balanced on his knees. Despite their differences in demeanor, both boys share a common bond as newsies, a term used to describe the young news vendors who sold newspapers on the streets of American cities in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The boys' attire is typical of the era, with short pants, collared shirts, and suspenders. The photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when children were a ubiquitous presence in the media industry. The image also underscores the importance of newsboys in the dissemination of information and the role they played in shaping public opinion. With their energetic sales pitches and cries of "Extra! Extra! Read all about it!", newsboys helped to bring the news to the masses, making them an integral part of the media landscape in the United States. Overall, this photograph is a poignant reminder of a bygone era, one in which children played a crucial role in the media industry and the streets of Richmond, Virginia, were filled with the sounds of young newsboys hawking their wares.
