EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Radio," was captured by the renowned Harris & Ewing photographic studio between 1910 and 1920. The image showcases a man intently focused on a radio communication device, surrounded by various pieces of related machinery, including a ticker tape machine. The country's burgeoning communication revolution is evident in this scene, as the man dons headphones to better hear the broadcast. The Harris & Ewing Collection, which includes this glass negative, offers a glimpse into the past, providing a window into the lives of Americans during the 1910s. The studio, founded by George W. Harris and Martha Ewing Kuntze, was a significant player in documenting the United States' social, political, and cultural landscape during this era. The man in the photograph is likely an operator, responsible for the operation and maintenance of these early radio communication systems. His intense concentration and the presence of the ticker tape machine suggest that he may be receiving or transmitting important information. This image offers a fascinating look at the role of technology in everyday life during the early 20th century, as radio quickly became a vital means of communication and entertainment for people across the country. The Harris & Ewing photographic studio, with its commitment to capturing the essence of the American experience, continues to be an essential resource for historians, researchers, and anyone interested in understanding the past.
