From the photographer's notes: Six-year-old Junior Johnson, of 14080 Northlawn in Detroit, pours water on the head of his girlfriend, 3-year-old Sally Salsinger. Photograph taken by Detroit News staff photographer "Brooks" on July 2, 1934.

Nearly all of these urchins were discovered in the photography archives of the Library of Congress (and available without copyright restrictions online). Otherwise, urchin photos will be credited to the appropriate photographer with a link to its source (unless they come from my own collection of photographs from unknown photographers). If there is ever a copyright concern, do not hesitate to contact me.
