EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Delivery trucks parked outside the Carolyn Laundry at 111 East 128th Street, East Harlem" offers a glimpse into the bustling streets of New York City during the Great Depression. Taken in 1929 by Byron Company, this silver gelatin print captures a moment frozen in time. The image showcases a fleet of delivery trucks lined up outside the Carolyn Laundry building, standing as silent witnesses to the daily grind of business operations. The drivers can be seen standing proudly beside their vehicles, representing resilience and determination amidst challenging economic times. The architectural details of the warehouse's facade are also prominent in this photograph. Its sturdy structure reflects an era when commerce was thriving on Wall Street before being abruptly halted by the devastating crash that occurred later that year. Transportation plays a crucial role in this snapshot of history. The convoy of trucks symbolizes movement and progress, highlighting how essential these vehicles were for businesses like Carolyn Laundry to thrive. As we delve into this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' collection, it serves as a reminder of both hardship and perseverance during one of America's most trying periods. This photograph encapsulates not only an important chapter in New York City's past but also represents an entire generation's struggle for survival and success against all odds.
