EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "DELAWARE: NEWSBOYS, c1910" captures a poignant moment in the lives of young newsboys in Wilmington, Delaware. Taken by renowned photographer Lewis Hine around 1910, this image offers a glimpse into the world of child labor during the turn of the century. In this powerful portrait, a gang of newsies or newsboys is seen gathered at the office of Every Evening newspaper. Dressed in worn-out caps and clothes that reflect their humble backgrounds, these boys exude both resilience and determination. Their faces tell stories of hardship and struggle as they navigate through life as working-class children. The sepia tone adds an air of nostalgia to this snapshot from history, emphasizing its significance as a testament to the challenges faced by these young workers. Despite their circumstances, there is also an undeniable sense of camaraderie among them – united by their shared experiences and dreams for a better future. This photo serves as a reminder not only of the realities faced by children during that era but also highlights Lewis Hine's dedication to exposing social injustices through his photography. It stands as evidence that even amidst adversity, hope can be found within communities coming together to support one another. "DELAWARE: NEWSBOYS, c1910" is more than just an image; it encapsulates an entire chapter in American history when childhood innocence was sacrificed for economic survival.
