Description
Made by the J. & E. Stevens Company. Cromwell, Connecticut - Late 1880's. At first glance, the imagery developed for the Cabin Bank seems innocuous, but looking more closely, one finds that negative racial themes abound. The black property owner is portrayed as indolent, lazily standing in his doorway, hands in his pocket, rather than sweeping out his cabin or fixing its broken windows.
