wartime Washington

Esther Bubley took these two photographs in March 1943. She took both in Washington DC while working for the Farm Security Administration, Office of War Information.

The first is captioned "Women gossiping in a drugstore over cokes" and the second "Riding on a streetcar."





They're both from collections in the Library of Congress Prints and Photos Div.

About a year ago, I did a blog post showing lots of her wartime photos: Esther Bubley
