New People @ Work Photo-#12 in This Series

By charlesakrugel

Since I started this blog, I’ve posted photos of real people at work. Also, I really dislike the generic photos of people working that a lot of brochures and websites use. The generic looking group of people, well groomed, conservatively dressed and doing something work related (usually white-collar work). Or, you just see photos of hand shaking, cell phone talking, people in a meeting, etc. And, because this is a labor and employment law blog, and it’s about me and my law practice, I figured that it would be interesting to post photos of my relatives working.

It’s been more than a year since I’ve posted any photos because I ran out of photos to post. Fortunately, my cousin in Los Angeles recently discovered a new photo, a restored version of my oldest photo (that of my great-great grandfather Meyer Levinson in front of his Chicago Maxwell St. butcher shop circa 1903-09), and some more background on another photo. These photos date back to the early 1900s in Chicago.

Through Flickr?s photo badge, you can view an ever-changing collage of these photos and click on the images to view a larger image along with an explanation of what you?re looking at, and what the photo means to me. My Flickr badge appears on the right-hand column of my blog. As always with my website, feel free to comment or critique. Alternatively, all of the photos and their backstories are on this site’s Photos page. Just click on an individual photo to see an enlarged and detailed image.

Here’s my newest photo:

If you click on the image, you’ll see the full-sized photo. This is a photo of my great-uncle Maury Young (far left), 2 unidentified men, and my grandfather Charles Krugel, who’s obviously the person that I was named after, working at Chicago’s Young & Goldstein Frocks in 1944. It’s kind of a cool photo with the lighting, shadows, clothing and machinery.

My next post in this series will be the restored photo referred to above and some newly discovered information concerning a photo of my great-grandmother at her store in Chicago.
