EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph taken in May 1910, a group of boys are seen gathered in a pool room located at the intersection of Chouteau and Manchester avenues in St. Louis, Missouri. The boys, ranging in age from young to adolescent, are engrossed in a game of pool, their faces focused intently on the table. The smallest boy among them, who appears to be around nine years old, takes a break from the game to puff on a cigarette. He wears a newsboy cap and carries a stack of papers under his arm, suggesting that he is a newsboy, selling papers to earn a living. The other boys in the room also smoke as they wait for their turn at the pool table or engage in lively conversation. The pool room, with its worn-out green felt table, dimly lit space, and smoky atmosphere, serves as a gathering place for these working-class boys during their free time. The photograph offers a glimpse into the lives of urban, working-class children in St. Louis at the turn of the 20th century, revealing their resilience and resourcefulness in the face of adversity. The image also underscores the prevalence of child labor and the normalization of smoking and pool playing in working-class communities at the time.
