EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in 1902, showcases a moment at the James & Allen Drug Co. in Chattanooga, Tennessee. The image, captured by an unknown photographer, transports us back in time to the early 20th century. The drugstore interior is filled with intriguing details, including three African American men engaged in various activities. At the counter, a shop worker, dressed in a crisp white shirt and apron, attends to a customer. The counter, adorned with an array of medicines and pharmaceutical paraphernalia, is a testament to the scientific advancements of the era. Two other men, seated at barstools, look directly at the camera with an air of curiosity. Their direct gaze invites us into their world, offering a glimpse into the daily life of this drugstore. The James & Allen Drug Co. was likely an important establishment in the Chattanooga community, providing essential goods and services to its residents. The photograph, now held in the Jean Blackwell Hutson Research and Education Division of the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture at the New York Public Library, serves as a valuable piece of American history. The interior of the drugstore is furnished with simple yet functional decor, including a wooden floor, exposed brick walls, and large windows that allow natural light to filter in. The black-and-white photograph, with its timeless quality, invites us to reflect on the rich heritage and history of this once-thriving business.
