EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a heartwarming scene from 1919 at the Hotel Commodore in New York City. The image showcases numerous bins filled to the brim with delectable doughnuts, all destined for a noble cause - the Salvation Army. During this time, as World War I had just come to an end, charitable efforts were essential in supporting those affected by the war. This generous donation of doughnuts symbolizes not only sustenance but also hope and comfort for those who had endured unimaginable hardships. The Hotel Commodore, located at Lexington Avenue and 42nd Street, served as a hub for this act of kindness. Its bustling cafe became a gathering place where volunteers tirelessly prepared these treats before they were distributed to those in need. The sheer abundance of doughnuts depicted in this photograph is truly remarkable; it highlights both the generosity of individuals and the collective effort put forth during challenging times. The mounds of sugary goodness serve as a testament to humanity's capacity for compassion and support. Preserved through silver gelatin print photography by Byron Company, this historical image now resides within the Museum of the City of New York's collection. It stands as a poignant reminder that even amidst turmoil, acts of charity can bring solace and unity to communities worldwide.
