EDITORS COMMENTS
**Scraped Ice Seller on a Sweltering Day**
In this photograph taken between c1910 and c1915 by renowned photographer George Grantham Bain, we find ourselves in the midst of a scorching summer day. A young ice seller stands proudly behind his cart, offering respite from the heat to passersby with his refreshing wares. The boy's worn shirt and dusty hat speak volumes about the demands of his occupation.
As he gazes out at us, we can almost feel the sweat dripping down our own faces as we imagine ourselves in this sweltering environment. Yet, despite the oppressive conditions, there is a sense of determination and resilience emanating from this young entrepreneur. His ice cart stands tall, its contents carefully arranged to maximize space and minimize melting.
This photograph not only captures a moment in time but also provides insight into the daily lives of those who worked tirelessly on city streets during America's early 20th century. Bain News Service's Scraped Ice Seller on Hot Day is an evocative reminder of the struggles faced by ordinary people as they navigated the challenges of their profession, all while seeking to provide for themselves and others in a rapidly changing world.
