HINE - NEWSBOYS, 1910. A Glimpse into the Lives of Young Workers in Albany
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photograph captures a poignant moment frozen in time during the winter of February 1910 in Albany, New York. In this snapshot by Lewis Hine, we witness a group of newsboys standing resolutely amidst the snow-covered streets. These young boys, with their faces marked by determination and resilience beyond their years, represent an era when child labor was prevalent. They were part of the working class that played a crucial role in delivering newspapers to households across America's bustling cities. The sepia-toned portrait reveals not only their youth but also hints at the harsh realities they faced daily. Bundled up against the biting cold, these adolescents donned caps and overcoats as they braved freezing temperatures to earn a living. Lewis Hine's powerful lens offers us a glimpse into early 20th-century commerce where children like these newsboys were integral cogs within society's machinery. Their presence on those snowy streets symbolizes both innocence lost and resilience gained at such tender ages. As we contemplate this image from The Granger Collection, let us remember that it serves as a reminder of our progress since then – how far we have come in protecting childhoods and ensuring better opportunities for future generations.
