EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from 1920, we are transported back in time to Little Orleans, Maryland. A young girl is shown diligently making apple butter, just as her great great grandparents did many years ago. The authenticity of the scene is enhanced by the use of the same iron pot and stirring stick that have been passed down through generations. The process may be laborious, requiring five hours of constant stirring, but for this young girl it is a connection to her family's history and traditions. As she stirs the bubbling mixture in the iron pot under the warm autumn sun, she carries on a legacy that dates back decades. This monochromatic image captures not only a moment in time but also highlights traditional culture and practices. It serves as a reminder of simpler times when people relied on their own skills and resources to create homemade delicacies like apple butter. The photograph showcases both the historical significance of food preparation techniques and provides insight into daily life during early 20th century America. Through this single image, we can appreciate how our ancestors' dedication to preserving tradition has shaped our present-day culinary experiences. This vintage snapshot from Underwood Archives offers us an intimate glimpse into one woman's commitment to upholding her family heritage while creating something delicious for future generations to savor.
