EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "HINE: NEWSBOY, 1913" transports us back in time to the bustling streets of San Antonio, Texas. The image captures the essence of a bygone era as we witness six-year-old newsboy Raymond Miller diligently at work. Despite his tender age, Raymond stands tall on a dirt road with determination etched across his face. His bare feet tell a story of resilience and hardship that was all too common during this period in American history. Dressed in knickers and suspenders, he wears a cap that adds an air of maturity beyond his years. Lewis Hine's lens perfectly encapsulates the daily life of young workers like Raymond who were part of the working class struggle for survival. This poignant portrait serves as a reminder of the harsh realities faced by children forced into labor at such an early age. The sepia-toned photograph is framed against a backdrop featuring an old hedge and buildings from San Antonio's southwest region. It offers us glimpses into both the physical environment and social conditions prevalent during this time. As we gaze upon this powerful image, it becomes evident that behind every newspaper sold by these young vendors lies untold stories filled with dreams deferred but also hope for brighter futures yet to come.
