EDITORS COMMENTS
In this charming photograph taken in the summer of 1938 in Dover, Delaware, a group of American boys stand in front of a local drugstore, their curiosity piqued by the various wares displayed in the window. The sun casts a warm glow over the scene, illuminating the boys' youthful faces and the vibrant colors of the drugstore's sign and merchandise. The boys, dressed in casual summer attire, appear to be on a break from their daily routine, their hands in their pockets and their eyes fixed on the drugstore's offerings. The drugstore, a staple of small-town America, is a bustling hub of activity, with customers coming and going, and the pharmacist likely attending to prescriptions or dispensing advice behind the counter. The photograph captures a moment in time, a snapshot of everyday life in a bygone era. The drugstore, with its soda fountain, prescription counter, and assortment of household and personal care items, was a gathering place for the community, a place where people could come to buy essentials, socialize, and enjoy a refreshing soda or ice cream cone. The photograph also serves as a reminder of the simple pleasures of childhood, of the joy and wonder that can be found in the most ordinary of places. The boys in the photograph, with their carefree attitudes and infectious energy, embody the spirit of youth and the joy of discovery. This photograph, taken in Dover, Delaware, in 1938, is a poignant reminder of a time when life moved at a slower pace, and the simple pleasures of small-town America could be found in the most unexpected places.
