EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the main office of the Carolyn Laundry, located at 111 East 129th Street in East Harlem, New York. Taken in 1929 by Byron Company, a renowned American photographer active from the late 19th to mid-20th century, this silver gelatin print showcases the bustling headquarters of this prominent laundry company. The image reveals an interior filled with filing cabinets neatly arranged against the walls, symbolizing meticulous organization and efficiency. The desks are occupied by diligent employees diligently working away on typewriters, their focused expressions reflecting their dedication to their tasks. The architecture exudes a sense of grandeur and sophistication typical of early 20th-century American buildings. This photograph offers a glimpse into business operations during the prosperous era of the Roaring Twenties. It encapsulates not only a specific moment in time but also represents broader themes such as urbanization and industrialization that shaped America's economic landscape during that period. Preserved within the Museum of City of New York's collection, this image serves as a testament to both historical significance and artistic excellence. Its timeless quality allows viewers to appreciate not only its aesthetic value but also gain insights into how businesses operated nearly a century ago.
