Collection: Wagner Labor Archives

“Some shipping companies shipped from the dock. Men had to stand long hours in the rain waiting for jobs,” reads the text that accompanies this graphic by illustrator Harold Price. Price was a merchant seaman who created powerful graphic images for the Education Department of the NMU, including this one, from “Listen Brothers,” printed in August 1943.

See more of Price’s drawings in Why Unions? Art From the National Maritime Union.
