EDITORS COMMENTS
Unloading Oyster Luggers, Baltimore, Md. (1905?): This evocative photograph captures the bustling activity of Baltimore's waterfront in the early 1900s. A group of fishermen, dressed in heavy workwear and hats, stand on the deck of a lugger, a traditional oyster fishing boat, as they unload their catch onto a cart. The cart, pulled by a horse, waits patiently on the wharf, ready to transport the precious cargo to market. The scene is a testament to the hard work and dedication of the local fishing industry, which played a significant role in the economy of Baltimore and the United States as a whole. The photograph, taken using a dry plate or glass negative process, has a timeless quality that transports us back to a bygone era. The image is part of the collection of the Library of Congress and was likely taken by an unknown photographer, possibly Edwin H. Husher or William A. Livingstone, both of whom were active in the Baltimore area during this time. The photograph is a valuable record of the region's maritime heritage and the important role played by the fishing industry in the community.
