EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Mary Evans Picture Library transports us back to the year 1913, where we catch a glimpse of messenger boys in their distinctive uniforms. These young boys were an integral part of the workforce during this time, tasked with delivering important messages and parcels across bustling cities. The image captures a moment in history when children as young as these were employed in various industries, highlighting the harsh working conditions they often faced.
The uniformed messenger boys stand out against the backdrop of historical buildings, showcasing a snapshot of life over a century ago. Their serious expressions hint at the responsibility and maturity required for their job, despite their tender age. It serves as a reminder of how different childhood looked like in that era compared to today.
As we reflect on this image, we are reminded of the resilience and adaptability shown by these young workers who navigated through challenging circumstances to earn a living. It also sheds light on societal norms and practices that have evolved over time.
