女孩Power-1918风格
发表于When the United States Navy’s Naval Aircraft Factory in Philadelphia needed to ramp up their labor force in early 1918, it began to train and employ women. According to William F. Trimble, author of海军翅膀:1917-1956的海军飞机厂的历史,工厂的第一个女工厂工人是薯条,已经是员工作为秘书。这种过渡发生在1917年12月,到1918年6月,劳动力包括218名妇女。一年后(12月1918日),NAF女性就业达到890岁,占工作队的24.5%。
是的 - 他们被称为女孩
不要太精细地说明这一点,我怀疑这些照片上的标题的作者是男性,也许是参考主题的新颖性。Trimble的使用女性and女性在1990年,他的出版时间适合。1918年不是那么的,当女性仍在争取投票权时。
Behind the Scenes on the SS United States with Albert Durant
发表于我不了解你,但我总是在幕后旅游!在20世纪50年代拍摄了海洋班轮的陪行员和工作领域并不是那么常见。这使得非洲裔美国人在我们的收藏中发现的一组照片中描绘过,提请我注意。
Photographer Albert Durant approached the opportunity to be on board the SS美国during its trial run to focus on fellow people of color whose service made the passengers’ journey pleasurable. I’ve since learned Durant was a trailblazer right here in our backyard.
哦,我们如何如何爱灯塔
发表于我知道灯塔是一种实用的目的,土地和水碰撞,但象征性地,他们在面对逆境时提供了希望和决心的信息。
There are times when the ocean is not the ocean-not blue, not even water, but some violent explosion of energy and danger: ferocity on a scale only gods can summon. It hurls itself at the island, sending spray right over the top of the lighthouse, biting pieces off the cliff. And the sound is a roaring of a beast whose anger knows no limits. Those are the nights the light is needed most.- M. L. Stedman
您是否听过关于火车,一个大篷车和吊桥的人?
发表于这里发生了什么?它绝对不是你典型的海上照片。
It’s a curious story. I came across the photograph quite by accident. It was filed under加洲的金门大桥。1904年6月20日,大篷车加洲的金门大桥只是碰巧在吊桥t Laurel, Delaware, when this locomotive broke through and plunged 50 feet into the Laurel River.
