Title

Chocolate Makers in Oskaloosa, Iowa, December 16, 1909

Description

The concept of small business was very prevalent throughout Oskaloosa, Iowa, at the turn of the 20th Century. In this photograph, staff from a chocolate store in town posed for the camera. What stands out significantly in the photograph is the amount of diversity captured in a single image. From white men, to women, to African-American men, all groups were given the chance to work in Oskaloosa and gained respect for their service to the community.
