EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the resilience and determination of blind news dealer, John Martie, as he stands proudly at his stand at the south end of the Municipal Building in New York City. Taken in 1926 by Byron Company, this gelatin silver print showcases a slice of urban life from a bygone era. Despite his disability, Martie exudes an air of confidence as he sells newspapers to passersby. The image highlights the importance of individuals like Martie who played a vital role in disseminating information during a time when newspapers were the primary source of news. The atmospheric street scene adds depth to the photograph, transporting us back to bustling Manhattan in the 1920s. The city's energy is palpable even through this still image, with blurred figures passing by and smoke billowing from nearby cigars. Martie's presence serves as a reminder that disabilities need not hinder one's ability to contribute meaningfully to society. His unwavering dedication and strength are emblematic of countless individuals who have overcome adversity throughout history. This vintage photograph offers us a glimpse into both social history and daily life scenes from early 20th century America.
