EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "HINE: NEWSBOY, 1910" takes us back in time to the bustling streets of St. Louis, Missouri. The image captures a six-year-old newsboy standing confidently on a sidewalk corner, his hat slightly tilted and a bright smile adorning his face. This young boy is emblematic of the working class children who played an integral role in society during the turn of the century. Photographed by Lewis Hine in May 1910, this portrait provides a glimpse into daily life at that time. Clutching newspapers tightly under his arm, he stands next to a lamppost adorned with advertisements for various products and services. His knickerbocker pants reflect the fashion trends of that era. The photograph highlights both the innocence and resilience of this unidentified newsboy as he navigates through early responsibilities. Child labor was prevalent during this period, with many youngsters contributing to their families' income by selling newspapers on street corners like this one. As we admire this snapshot from history, it serves as a reminder of how far we have come in terms of child welfare and labor laws. It also prompts us to reflect upon our own privilege while acknowledging those who came before us - individuals like Lewis Hine who used their artistry to shed light on social issues such as child labor.
