EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in American history as Anton Cermak, the Czech-born politician, is being sworn in as the mayor of Chicago, Illinois. The image showcases the official ceremony taking place on April 9,1931, with Judge Edmund K. Jarecki administering the oath of office to Cermak. Standing beside them is County Clerk Robert M. Sweitzer, attentively observing this pivotal moment. The photograph exudes an air of formality and importance with its depiction of an interior setting adorned with elegant furnishings. The men present are dressed impeccably in double-breasted suits and bow ties, reflecting the sartorial style of that era. Anton Cermak's rise to power holds particular significance due to his immigrant background and affiliation with the Democratic Party. This image serves as a testament to America's rich history of embracing diversity and providing opportunities for individuals from all walks of life. As we gaze upon this remarkable scene frozen in time by The Granger Collection's Carousel Collection, we cannot help but feel a sense of admiration for those who have dedicated their lives to public service. This print not only commemorates Anton Cermak's inauguration but also symbolizes hope and progress within municipal government during that early period.
