EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Jack Delano takes us back to the bustling 40th Street shops of the Chicago and North Western Railroad in 1942. Amidst the chaos of World War II, a blue-collar worker is seen diligently working on the boiler of a locomotive, showcasing the unwavering spirit and dedication of American laborers during this era. The image exudes an atmosphere of hard work and determination as this anonymous man carries out his maintenance duties. The vibrant colors bring life to every detail within the frame, emphasizing both the grittiness of his surroundings and his own resilience. Delano's composition skillfully captures not only the physicality but also the significance behind this scene. It serves as a testament to America's industrial might at that time, with railways playing a crucial role in transporting goods and people across vast distances.
