A single black-and-white photograph of four barefoot boys in caps, suspenders, and short trousers standing against a brick wall, identified in the catalog as child laborers at the Fulton Bag & Cotton Mills in Atlanta, Georgia. Handwritten captions beneath the image give each boy's weekly wage, apparently 32¢ and 50¢ a week. It documents child labor in the American cotton textile industry.
