EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph print, titled "Officers of the League; William E. Gross, Treasurer, 1892," is an intriguing glimpse into the past, showcasing a group of African American activists dressed in formal attire. The image, believed to have been created in the late 19th century, is a testament to the rich history of political activism within the African American community in America. William E. Gross, the focus of the photograph, is depicted as the treasurer of the League, wearing a crisp bowtie and a well-groomed mustache. His expression is serious, yet his gaze is directed away from the camera, suggesting a deep concentration on the important work of the organization. The other officers in the image are also dressed in formal clothing, adding to the sense of professionalism and dedication. This photograph is part of the Jean Blackwell Hutson Division of the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture at the New York Public Library. It offers a unique perspective on the activism and political climate of the time, providing valuable insights into the lives and experiences of African American men during the nineteenth century. The print, which bears the title "New Rochelle Pioneer," is an important addition to any collection of historical images or African American studies. The intricate engraving and attention to detail in the print add to its aesthetic appeal, making it a striking and thought-provoking piece of art. This image serves as a reminder of the important role that political activism and community organizations have played in shaping the history of America and the experiences of African Americans.
