EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a line-up of smart and young telegraph boys from the 1930s, proudly displaying their immaculate uniforms and highly polished shoes. The boys, who appear to be teenagers, exude a sense of discipline and professionalism that was expected of them as messengers of the telegraph service during this historical era. The telegraph was a revolutionary form of long-distance communication, allowing messages to be sent instantly over long distances using Morse code. These boys were responsible for delivering these important messages, often traveling great distances on foot or by bicycle. Their uniforms, which included a crisp shirt, tie, and cap, were not only a symbol of their status as telegraph messengers but also ensured they were easily identifiable on the job. The girls in the background, dressed in modest frocks and hats, add an intriguing element to the photograph. It is unclear if they were family members or fellow employees, but their presence suggests that women played a role in the telegraph industry beyond just being the wives and daughters of the male workers. This photograph is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the daily life of telegraph boys during the 1930s. It is a reminder of the important role these young messengers played in the history of communications and the impact they had on shaping the way we connect with each other today.
