"While the last act of the drama, the final scene in Sitting Bull's career as a warrior, was enacted at noon on July 20th, when, by the hand of his little son, he delivered to Major Brotherton the rifle he had carried throughout so many bloody fields. This being done, the great chieftain spoke as follows: 

"I surrender this rifle to you through my young son, whom I now desire to teach in this manner that he has become a friend of the Americans. I wish him to learn the habits of the whites and to be educated as their sons are educated. I wish it to be remembered that I was the last man of my tribe to surrender my rifle. This boy has given it to you, and he now wants to know how he is going to make a living. Whatever you have to give or whatever you have to say, I would like to receive or hear now, for I don't wish to be kept in darkness longer. I have sent several messengers in here from time to time, but none of them have returned with news. The other chiefs, Crow King and Gaul, have not wanted me to come, and I have never received good news from here. I now wish to be allowed to live this side of the line or the other, as I see fit. I wish to continue my old life of hunting, but would like to be allowed to trade on both sides of the line. This is my country, and I don't wish to be compelled to give it up. My heart was very sad at having to 
leave the great mother's country. She has been a friend to me, but I want my children to grow up in our native country, and I also wish to feel that I can visit two of my friends on the other side of the line, viz.: Major Walsh and Captain McDonald, whenever I wish, and would like to trade with Louis Legare, as he has always been a friend to me. I wish to have all my people live together upon one reservation of our own on the Little Missouri...”

My mother told me she would bicycle down to the blacksmith shop on Saturday morning with the radio battery in her bicycle basket. An apprentice would hook it up to a hand generator. She paid him ten cents. When done, she got the battery back and went home. Their radio had 3 phenolic plastic headphones. That is how they listened to music and the news. 1930s. A few years later their neighborhood got electricity. By then the battery charging was 25 cents. The newer radio had a speaker. They used kerosene glass lamps for light before they got electricity. When it clouded up in the 1950s, my grandmother and I got out those lanterns in case the power went out.

First commercial radio service began sometime around the 30s, so "mid 20s" sounds weird.

tune to that new rock station, 104.3!

Mia Farrow was born in 1945 so that may be she on the far left holding her mother’s hand.

Wow...so..many..kids! I wonder how she found time to be an actress. Must have been continuously pregnant for the last ten years or so!

Ronan looks like his grandfather

Memorializing the baby’s baptism.

“I Tarzan you Jane”, she beat the type casting but Tarzan never could, unfortunately Johnny W. was a one trick pony.

Something dysfunctional in this family.

I would expect him to look like Gene Wilder. 😄

I keep Ghirardelli dark chocolate squares in our candy dish 24/7. My personal addiction 😁. We visited Ghirardelli Square several years ago in San Francisco.

Very important man to all chocolate lovers! 🙂

You earned a place in Heaven!

I’ve been to the store and factory in San Francisco. I love Ghirardelli chocolates

Worked for Ghirardelli main plant for 17 yrs… 🙂

Thank you for keeping palm oil out of your mixes.

He came to San Francisco from South America along with James Lick.

This was the American dream. A 'blue collar' worker could afford a nice house, car, and wonderful family life.

People were happy with fitting a family of 4 into “middle class” homes.. Now if people don’t have a house that is 2,500+ sf of living space, it’s not a house.

That was a time when the USA had a plan to move everyone into the middle class. Factory jobs came with decent salaries, safeguards and benefits.

American dream then

Those were the good old days. Edie &Jimmy

They look so proud of what they have. If a family lives in a house like that now people would look down on them and wonder why they were not out there working their a-- off to afford more. We have become so materialistic!😯

“The American Dream” at the time.

I remember post war houses like that one, when I was about that girls age. And the driveway like that one, was common.

The good old days when manufacturing was done here in our country and there were a lot of good paying jobs for American people.

Looks like my Uncle's home in Detriot and he did work at the Ford plant near 8 Mile then. Wonder what it looks like now, almost 70 yrs later.

And this was considered middle class

Life in the small bungalow! All was good and safe! Memories!

It was the best time, it was safer for kids to enjoy life! Kids will never know what fun we had!!!

Wasn't it wonderful . A family able to afford a house, a car, and 2 kids. Now, just trying to put food on the table is hard

The perfect American family!

Wonder what that house looks like now when you drive by ? 

Thanks to the UAW, a nice house, yard, well dressed family, and new car.

In a time when working class people in manufacturing jobs could afford a nice home and car. Nice pic.

Nice 1953 ford sitting there.

My grandfather was a "factory hand" at Ford

June and ward cleavers house where’s Wally and the Beaver .

Absolutely awesome picture of History!

The good old days folks right there would you look at adorable little girl life was simpler back then very nice picture that says it all.👍

Our home in Dundalk, Md. in Baltimore, at 2418 Meadow Road was made just like that. My dad Robert W. Bruck was working as an Inspector for Glenn L. Martin Plane Corporation. That was in 1952 to 1957,

Love the history in the picture.

Looks as if that department needs to be resurrected.

I wish that all police departments could have and use machine guns.

And those are only the traffic cops.

This was still during WWI and there was fear of German terrorists in NYC.

And some complain about people carrying pistols.

Love our history. Good or Bad. It is all very interesting.. We should learn few lessons from the past

I can’t think of a single good reason for this.

Probably needed again at this time!!😳😢🤬

We need those machine guns again in New York

We need this at the border!!

They were to early for Antifa!

Might be able to use a modern version now. Might have a traffic enforcement application.

Fully surprised this isn't happening today?😡 Or maybe it is, in some type of immorality.😥

Well this was when anyone could go into a hardware store and buy a tommy gun. I think they were trying to send a message

that what the cops need now days

It's interesting that at the time this photo was taken, it was completely legal for John Q. Citizen to own fully automatic weapons...

Don’t care about the machine gun, I’d love to have that Indian!

Maybe they need to go back to that!!!

Must be a tough Hood.

Gives traffic enforcement a whole new meaning 😏

Do any of you that have wrote on this topic understand that just having a gun like this will stop a lot of fun what's going on now, just out in the open will make any stupid people change their minds about what they want to do,,,period. And dollars to doughnuts it will help stop mass shootings.. our police don't want to use such a deadly weapon on any one but for damn sure it would stop this nonsense that's going on today.

Police with machine guns! Today police can get in trouble for using hand guns.

Looks like a configuration of a Thompson machine gun

A belt-fed machinegun could probably cure most traffic offences.

Colt Browning 1895 machine gun. The potato digger.

If a governor comes out of his government rich, they say he has been a thief; and if he comes out poor, that he has been a noodle and a blockhead.
