18th Amendment 1922 Agent Crime Liquor Moonshine Movement Prohibition Prohibitionist Raid Roaring Twenties Washington


EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, taken in Washington, D. C. on October 14,1922, we are transported back to the era of Prohibition in America. The image showcases a group of stern-faced revenue agents standing proudly amidst their confiscated bootleg liquor haul. These men were at the forefront of the movement against alcohol during one of the most transformative periods in American history. The picture captures not only a moment frozen in time but also the essence of an entire era known as the Roaring Twenties. It is a powerful reminder of how deeply ingrained crime became during this period when alcohol was banned by the 18th Amendment. As we observe these agents surrounded by bottles and barrels filled with illicit moonshine, it becomes evident that they were engaged in a constant battle against those who sought to profit from illegal activities. Their determined expressions reflect their commitment to enforcing prohibition laws and maintaining order within society. This photograph serves as both a historical document and a testament to human resilience and determination. It reminds us that even during times when societal norms are challenged or changed, there will always be individuals willing to uphold what they believe is right. Granger Art on Demand has once again captured an iconic moment from our past through this evocative print titled "Prohibition, 1922. "
