EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the 19th century with this image of a Pullman car kitchen, captured in 1882. The Pullman Car Company, founded by George Pullman in 1867, revolutionized train travel in America by introducing sleeper cars, providing passengers with a more comfortable and luxurious experience. This photograph offers a glimpse into the daily life of the kitchen staff, who played a crucial role in ensuring the comfort and satisfaction of passengers. Three African American men, dressed in uniforms, are seen at work in the compact yet efficient kitchen space. The chef, likely in charge, stands at the center, skillfully preparing a meal on the wood-burning stove. His two assistants, one chopping vegetables and the other washing dishes, work diligently to keep up with the demands of the dining carriage. This evocative print, held in the Jean Blackwell Hutson Division of the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture at the New York Public Library, is a testament to the rich history of African American labor and the industrial revolution in America. The kitchen of a Pullman car served as a vital workspace, where meals were prepared for hundreds of passengers each day, making it an essential component of the Pullman Car Company's success. The image, with its intricate details and authentic atmosphere, transports us back in time, offering a unique perspective on the lives of the men who played a significant role in the history of American transportation.
