I came across this wonderful photograph of the Butchers’ Union Drum Corps, circa 1910, in the San Francisco – Labor photograph files while collecting materials to reproduce for the Labor Archives and Research Center’s 25th Anniversary Celebration on May Day:
The energy working people invested in the production, rather than the consumption, of culture in the Progressive Era continues to surprise and impress this modern worker.

Do we want to know what they were using for drum sticks?
