EDITORS COMMENTS
TEXAS: GEESE, 1939. A charming snapshot of life in Waco, Texas during the Great Depression. This photograph by Russell Lee captures a unique scene at the market square. In November 1939, geese were seen confined to a pen cleverly attached to the side of an automobile. The image showcases the resourcefulness and resilience of Texans during this challenging era. The man responsible for this ingenious setup is not pictured, but his creative solution to transporting these geese speaks volumes about the spirit of entrepreneurship that thrived even in difficult times. The bustling storefronts surrounding the market square hint at a community striving to rebuild their economy amidst adversity. The photo provides a glimpse into daily life as people went about their business - barbershop signs catch our attention while commerce continues despite economic hardships. Russell Lee's lens beautifully captures this slice of history, giving us insight into how ordinary people found ways to adapt and survive during one of America's darkest periods. It serves as a reminder that even in times of struggle, communities can come together with innovative ideas and determination. This print from Granger Art on Demand offers viewers an opportunity to reflect on the past while appreciating human resilience and ingenuity.
