While compiling these images I came across the work of Lewis Hines; some of his photographs of messenger boys are included here. There are more in this series
at this link as well as information related to several of the boys. These and other of his images were instrumental in bringing into being the first child labor laws in this country. And here is the
Wikipedia entry on this hugely important figure in the history of American sociology and photography.
