After the Bath: 1909
New York City municipal lodging house circa 1909. "After the bath." This is the answer to those wondering what you'd wear while your clothes were being fumigated overnight. George Grantham Bain Collection. View full size.
Scary
Sort of looks like a picture taken in an early 1900's mental institution.
Socks
The man second from the right didn't get his new government-issued socks, apparently.
DPC
The guy in uniform looks like he belongs with the Department of Public Corrections instead of Department of Public Charities.
Those tags around their necks must match numbered tags on their clothing undergoing fumigation.
