EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the bustling energy of the New York City Subway system in 1937. The image, titled "NY Subway Passengers 2" (Passengers (2 of 2)), offers a rare glimpse into the daily lives of subway commuters during this era. The photograph was taken at a time when the subway was the primary mode of transportation for the city's residents, and this is reflected in the diverse crowd of passengers. The photograph shows a packed subway car, with passengers of various ages, genders, and ethnicities, all focused on their personal pursuits. In the foreground, an African American woman, dressed in a stylish hat and coat, reads a newspaper intently. Nearby, a young boy, dressed in a collared shirt and shorts, looks out the window with wide-eyed curiosity. A businessman in a suit and fedora checks his pocket watch, while a group of women in dresses and heels chat animatedly. Despite the crowded conditions, there is a sense of order and routine in the photograph. Each passenger seems to be in their own world, yet connected by the shared experience of using the subway to travel through the bustling city. The photograph also serves as a reminder of the rich history and diversity of New York City, and the important role that public transportation plays in the daily lives of its residents.
