Washington, D.C April 13, 1911

From the notes of Lewis Hine:
"After 9 P.M., 7 year old Tommie Nooman demonstrating the advantages of the Ideal Necktie Form in store window on Pennsylvania Ave., Washington, D.C. His father said, 'He is the youngest demonstrator in America. Has been doing it for several years from San Francisco, to New York. We stay a month or six weeks in a place, he works at it off and on.'
The remarks of appreciation from the by-standers were not having the best effect on Tommie.
Washington, D.C."
