New York men in a bread line during the Great Depression
New York men in a bread line during the Great Depression, 1935-38. The sign read, Paid Up to this Point, Every Dollar pays for 20 More Meals. Men ahead of the sign are assured of a five-cent meal--the rest must wait for more contributions. Many men went to soup kitchens so their families would have more to eat at home (BSLOC_2016_10_210)
