Trains Used To Drive Down The Goddamn Street In New York City

yesterday, 80 years ago (01/30/1933) Hitler became “Reichskanzler”. imgur

It looks like the Rat Race started early for some. Today’s picture shows a truckload of kids being taken to a farm to pick tobacco. The children were picked up in town at 6:00 AM and were returned at 7:00 PM. That would make for a pretty hard day. The picture was taken in 1917.
