Children - Morning Meeting 1910 Ceramic Tree Decoration

Colourized photo from 1910 May Original Title: Take our mugs mister? Location: 2 E 4th St Wilmington, Delaware In the past, children worked the street, hustling people, or sold news papers. The ones that sold the papers were called newsies. Newsies were usually children that were anywhere from 5 to their teen age years. Often working for their family, or earning a few cents for themselves. This group of youngsters, must be a part of some kind of union. Or they are taking a break on a stair case with limited space. Maybe they are working on angles to sell the papers, pointing out that boxing headline for example.
