EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage print captures a significant moment in history - the release of Tom Mooney, Labor's Champion, after spending 18 long years behind bars for the Preparedness Day bombing. The poster, displayed prominently in San Francisco on July 27,1934, announces his freedom to the world. The image exudes a sense of hope and triumph as people gather around the poster with anticipation and pride. In this monochromatic snapshot from the 1930s, we see a diverse group of individuals united by their support for Mooney's cause. Their expressions reflect both relief and admiration for this labor leader who fought tirelessly for workers' rights. Shot indoors against a plain backdrop, the focus remains solely on the powerful message conveyed by this historic moment. The photograph's vertical composition adds to its visual impact while emphasizing Mooney's towering presence within labor unions. Tom Mooney himself is captured with an air of resilience and determination etched onto his face. His caucasian appearance stands out amidst the crowd surrounding him, symbolizing his role as an influential figure in American labor history. Preserved by Underwood Archives and now part of Universal Images Group (UIG), this print serves as a reminder of our collective struggle for justice and equality throughout time. It encapsulates not only one man's fight but also represents a pivotal era in California's past that continues to shape our present-day society.
