This is a photograph of six African American children posed with a toy wagon in front of a wooden fence. The two youngest children, a boy and a girl, both dressed in white, ride in the wagon and look toward a smiling boy with a hat and what looks like a sailor's nap holding the handle of the wagon. The three other children, two girls in dresses and a boy, stand behind the wagon. It is clear that at least two of the children, perhaps all of them, are wearing lace-up shoes. The fence is almost twice their size and made of planks at least a foot wide. - Metadata URL:
