This sepia-toned photograph features a group of young boys and men dressed in work attire, standing on what appears to be an outdoor street or alleyway. The clothing suggests the era may have been around early 1920s given its style. Some individuals are wearing overalls with suspenders while others wear suits paired with button-up shirts and hats typical for that time period. Several of them display a stern demeanor, standing with arms crossed or hands in pockets.

The boys appear to be younger than the men, some as young as children but all likely under the age of 16 given their size compared to adults. Their expressions vary from serious to somewhat curious or defiant. The older individuals seem more composed and focused on something outside the frame.

In the background, blurred buildings suggest an urban environment with a mix of residential structures that could be housing for workers. There is no direct indication of industry in this part of the image; however, given the clothing style, it's plausible they may have been working nearby.

There are various items such as pipes and hats scattered among them which add to their workman-like appearance. The photograph has a grainy texture typical of early 20th-century photography and shows signs of age with wear on its edges indicating that this photo might be over a century old, reflecting the conditions of labor during [...] — This sepia-toned photograph features a group of young boys and men dressed in work attire, standing on what appears to be an outdoor street or alleyway.

Sam Gangi, 82 Pleasant Valley St., Ayer Mill (See 2502). Location: Lawrence, Massachusetts.

The image is a historical black and white photograph depicting multiple individuals standing on an outdoor street, with one central figure prominently in focus. The main subject appears to be a young boy dressed in dark clothing, including shorts, boots, and a coat, suggesting early 20th-century fashion for children. His attire looks worn but well-kept.

The background features several other people who seem to be engaged in casual conversation or waiting their turn; they are wearing coats and hats indicative of cold weather. The setting appears urban with cobblestone streets and buildings that have a historical architectural style, potentially from the early 1900s based on clothing styles and photographic quality.

There's an air of informality to the scene as people gather in groups or stand alone. Notably, there is no modern technology visible which supports its older time period setting. The image captures a candid moment that could be part of Lewis Hine’s work documenting child labor conditions during his tenure with the National Child Labor Committee.

The photograph conveys a sense of historical context regarding social history and urban life in early 20th-century America, specifically focusing on children's lives and experiences at that time. — The image is a historical black and white photograph depicting multiple individuals standing on an outdoor street, with one central figure prominently in focus.

New York attorney general to deploy legal observers to monitor federal immigration agents

The initiative will send observers, who will wear purple safety vests, to areas of reported immigration enforcement activity to collect information “that may inform future legal action,” according to Attorney General Letitia James.

John Sims, 7 year old newsie, New Bedford, Mass. August 22, 1911. Evening. Richard K. Conant, Witness. Location: New Bedford, Massachusetts.

https://www.loc.gov/pictures/item/2018675382/

The image depicts a young boy standing on the sidewalk in an urban setting from around 1911. He appears to be wearing a white shirt with short sleeves, shorts, and shoes without socks or laces. The boy is holding what seems to be a newspaper under his arm while another paper lies discarded at his feet.

The street behind him features various storefronts such as "WILL & SON - 32" and "DEVOLL'S," indicating the presence of shops on both sides, including signs for hats ("H.B. DOWNLAND") and tobacco products ("T.S. HOWLAND"). The scene is set in what looks like a late summer or early autumn evening based on the lighting.

The image has a sepia-tone quality typical of old photographs from that era. It evokes a sense of daily life, labor, and innocence as captured by photographer Lewis Hine through his work with the National Child Labor Committee. The photograph is credited to John Sims (7 years old) being a newsie in New Bedford, Massachusetts on August 22, 1911, during an evening session taken by Richard K. Conant under witness conditions for documentation purposes. — The image depicts a young boy standing on the sidewalk in an urban setting from around 1911.

Sunset over Boston Harbor. Very surreal listening to Atlas Air by Massive Attack on my noise canceling headphones as we rise into the sky.

High altitude view of a darkened harbor. The ground is lit up with a network of interconnected lights. The sky is a dark orange near the horizon with a narrow band of golden yellow above that and darkening blue above that.

Working girl about 14 standing at gate. R. K. Conant - Witness. Location: New Bedford, Massachusetts.

#RKConant-Witness #NewBedford #Massachusetts #RKConant #Photography #LewisHine #ChildLabour #ChildLabor

https://www.loc.gov/pictures/item/2018675376/

A sepia-toned photograph depicts a historical scene with an individual standing at the entrance of what appears to be a factory or industrial building. The person, likely female based on appearance and attire which includes dark boots and white garments that suggest work clothes from past eras, is positioned in front of tall wooden slats resembling gates. They are facing away towards the structure's interior where several large buildings with brickwork can be seen under an overcast sky.

The architecture around indicates a late 19th or early 20th-century setting with features such as chimney stacks and what looks to be industrial machinery in the distant background, hinting at heavy industry. The cobblestone street is empty save for this individual's presence, suggesting perhaps a moment of pause amidst work hours.

The photograph has an aged look, which enhances its historical feel and suggests it was taken during that era captured by R.K. Conant as per provided metadata indicating "Working girl about 14 standing at gate." This image captures the essence of industrial life with emphasis on laborers in a specific setting—New Bedford, Massachusetts—as noted in the source link.

In summary, this photograph embodies historical work-life conditions through its depiction of an individual amidst an early industrial landscape. — A sepia-toned photograph depicts a historical scene with an individual standing at the entrance of what appears to be a factory or industrial building.

Group going out at noon from the Kilburn Mills. Little girl running is one of the workers. Location: New Bedford, Massachusetts.

#theKilburnMills #NewBedford #Massachusetts #third #Photography #LewisHine #ChildLabour #ChildLabor

https://www.loc.gov/pictures/item/2018675375/

The image captures a moment in time at what appears to be the Kilburn Mills located in New Bedford, Massachusetts. The setting is outdoors during daylight hours with seven individuals visible on the path leading up towards a brick building bordered by wooden picket fences. In the foreground, there's an adult male and another individual walking side-by-side facing away from the camera, seemingly engrossed in conversation or observation.

Behind them stands three adults: two males wearing hats and suits typical of early 20th-century fashion, one with a pipe possibly engaged in contemplation, while the third is standing further behind. To their right walks another man also dressed formally but more casually than his companions, perhaps due to differing social status or roles.

Further back on this path are two women: an adult female and what seems like a young girl (the "little girl running" mentioned), distinguishable by her shorter stature compared with the adults around. The woman appears in mid-stride walking alongside the man previously seen closer up, while the little one is captured in motion - she's off-balance as if having just started to run or was playfully chased.

On the rightmost part of this picture stands a figure at some distance from these main subjects; it might be another worker based on proximity and attire.
