EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to a bygone era, capturing the essence of a different time in history. In this image titled "Cigar-Smoking Child" we are introduced to three-year-old Robert Quigley, an unconventional little boy from Washington DC. The photograph tells a remarkable story of how young Robert's smoking habit began at just one year old when he innocently grabbed his father's pipe and attempted to imitate him. This astonishing detail is further complemented by anecdotes suggesting that the child also indulges in alcohol consumption and tobacco chewing. Such revelations make this image all the more intriguing, offering a glimpse into societal norms that have long since evolved. With its retro styling and nostalgic appeal, this print transports us back to 30th August 1928, allowing us to witness firsthand the innocence of childhood intertwined with adult vices. It serves as a reminder of how perspectives on parenting and child rearing have drastically changed over time. As we contemplate this extraordinary snapshot captured by Henry Miller News Picture Service, it sparks contemplation about concepts such as human age, people's choices, and society's evolving values. While it may be unsettling for some viewers today, it undoubtedly offers valuable insights into our shared history. This editorial piece from Archive Photos invites reflection on cultural shifts while simultaneously evoking curiosity about what became of young Robert Quigley as he grew older.
