I don't even know, does anybody work, nowadays, as hard as folks did in the steel and coal industries back in those days?
Perhaps, in construction? Lumber? Forestry?

Very early mornings. Late afternoons. Never a day off from the animals that depend on you. No time to be sick, Id imagine, or celebrate many holidays extensively.

Yup. My great-uncle's life - never traveled more than a 1/2 day's distance - had to be home for milking.

That would have been an interesting sight in the parade.
I remember a person in my hometown that rode one in the 1940s.

That top trio looks , to me, in their overall affect, like a photo I saw once of the Lincoln-Seward assassins group. Seems a cheerless bunch.

They look as if they are all dressed up to go to town and have a good time and nobody can stop them.
Any idea where those photos were made?
