Title

Newspaper delivery boys with turkeys

Description

Black and white image of a group of fifteen school-age boys, each holding a large, plucked turkey carcass. Museum records do not identify the boys, other than to state that they are newspaper delivery boys and the turkeys are likely holiday bonuses. This image is part of the Herbert McMullen bequest. McMullen was a local photographer who owned a studio in Hillsboro; he also collected images of local life taken by other photographers.
