EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph captured by Jack Delano in 1940, we are transported back to a bustling street corner in Brockton, Massachusetts. The image showcases a group of men engrossed in reading the headlines posted outside the Brockton Enterprise newspaper office. As their eyes scan the newsprint, one can almost feel the palpable tension and curiosity that must have permeated the air during this pivotal period. The setting exudes an authentic Americana charm with its quaint street lamp casting a warm glow on the scene. Dressed impeccably in coats and hats, these men epitomize timeless style as they stand amidst a backdrop of historical significance. It is impossible not to be captivated by their presence against this snapshot of everyday life. Delano's keen eye for detail allows us to appreciate not only the individuals but also their surroundings. The sign above them proudly displays "Brockton Enterprise" symbolizing both local pride and journalistic integrity. This image serves as a reminder of how newspapers were once at the forefront of delivering news to communities across America. As we gaze upon this remarkable print from Delano's collection housed within the Library of Congress, it becomes clear that it represents more than just men reading headlines; it encapsulates an era defined by resilience, patriotism, and unwavering determination during World War II.
