The photograph was taken by Hine at 11 am, Mon May 9th, 1910. The original caption read “Newsies at Skeeter’s Branch, Jefferson near Franklin. They were all smoking.”
Hine said of Preston; “I saw him at work different times during the day, at 7 A.M, in the afternoon, and at 6 P.M., and he kept at it very faithfully for so young a worker.”
I decided to include it to show a different view of childhood, hopefully depicting a better outcome and improved conditions for America’s children at the time.
