EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "PITTSBURGH: PEDDLER, 1900" we are transported back in time to the bustling streets of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. The image captures a street peddler going about his daily routine, offering goods and wares to passersby. This stereograph view provides a unique perspective on life in early 20th century America. The scene is filled with intriguing details that paint a vivid picture of the era. A young boy stands beside the peddler, perhaps learning the trade or assisting him in some way. The bridge towering above them serves as a reminder of the city's industrial prowess and its importance as a transportation hub. The photograph also offers glimpses into the working class culture of Pittsburgh at that time. Men can be seen walking by, potentially potential customers for the peddler's merchandise. The presence of child labor raises questions about societal norms and economic conditions during this period. This snapshot freezes a moment in history when pushcarts lined the streets and shopping was an intimate experience between vendor and customer. It encapsulates both the hardships faced by those trying to make ends meet and the vibrant energy that permeated through every corner of this thriving city. As we admire this turn-of-the-century photograph, we are reminded of how much our world has changed while simultaneously appreciating how certain aspects have remained constant throughout time - such as people striving to earn their livelihoods amidst ever-evolving urban landscapes.
