EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "The Newsboy, 'Extry Speshul'" by William Dacres Adams captures a poignant moment in history. The image showcases a young newsboy, his face weathered and worn from the hardships of life as he stands on a bustling street corner. Clutching newspapers tightly in his hands, he eagerly shouts out the latest headlines to passersby. Rendered in vibrant colors through the medium of lithography, this artwork is not only visually striking but also serves as a powerful social commentary. It was originally created as an illustration for the book "A Book of Beggars" by W Dacres Adams, published in 1912. In this scene, we witness the resilience and determination of those who find themselves at society's margins. The newsboy represents one among many mendicants who rely on charity and begging to survive. His presence reminds us of both their struggles and their resourcefulness. Through this artwork, Adams invites us to reflect upon our own privilege and consider how we can extend compassion towards those less fortunate than ourselves. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded that acts of charity have the power to uplift individuals like the newsboy depicted here. "The Newsboy, 'Extry Speshul'" offers us a glimpse into an era long gone but leaves behind an enduring message about empathy and humanity that resonates even today.
