caption: CHILD LABOR twelve-year-old girl works piecework at home gluing linen fabric onto tin cans to make pocket flasks. She starts early and finishes late: in the morning she goes out with a bundle of her small covered flasks and after earning a little money selling them she goes home and glues two hundred more before it’s time for night school. This way she helps her working-class immigrant family. Photograph of Danish-American journalist Jacob A. Riis (May 3, 1849 – May 26, 1914), progressive social reformer and social documentary photographer. USA 1892.
