Josie, six years old, Bertha, six years old, Sophie, 10 years old. These children shucked oysters for four hours before school and three after. On Saturdays, they work from 4AM to early afternoon.these photos were taken in February of 1912 by Lewis Wickes Hine, famed sociologist and photographer. Through his imagery, Hine was instrumental in child labor law reform in the United States. Due to the dangers of lifting the veil on child labor, Hine assumed many disguises to document his work These particular photos were taken in Port Royal, SC, a part of Hine’s larger project of capturing child labor from the Northeast to the Deep South. The children worked for Maggioni Canning Co., a company still in operation today. Photo courtesy of the Library of Congress
