BREAD LINE - NO ONE HAS STARVED, 1932 by REGINALD MARSH
Rather than portray individuals as victims of poverty, MARSH uses the similarly dressed men’s row to portray a collective view of the consequences of the Great Depression. The row extends beyond the etching’s boundaries without indicating a beginning or an end, and this, in conjunction with the absence of space above or below the figures’ heads, symbolizes their social and economic confinement.
The title of this piece is part of a quote taken from President HOOVER, who running for reelection in 1932 stated that the AMERICAN economy was fundamentally sound and that "No one has starved.
At the same time, the fact, however, that many of the men are attempting to pick the pockets of those in front of them in the line also implies an element of gentle satire to the work. . This duality is further emphasized by the similarities between the painting and traditional friezes.
This can either be interpreted as a celebration of the average person by showing them in a traditional way or as a satire comparing the poor working class to the heroes of traditional myths.
This etching, produced at the height of the Depression, shows a line of men waiting for governmental hand-outs of food. The bread line was a common theme in 1930s Social Realism as it demonstrated the tangible effects of the Depression on the working classes.

In capitalist america, the bread lines stretch for miles:
The line to get into the Cleveland Foodbank is several MILES long. Police/National Guard started cars in at 1:30 instead of 2pm. @wkyc

Breadline Statue, Franklin D. Roosevelt Memorial, the Mall, Washington DC, 2006.
I forgot to make a note of his name, but the man who sculpted this and several other pieces at the Roosevelt Memorial died a couple of weeks ago.
“Bread Line. A. Lebedinsky.” The Survey. Nov. 15, 1930.
This semester, two interns have been working with Special Collections and Digital Services to scan and research original editorial cartoons from the John Tinney McCutcheon Collection. McCutcheon was a cartoonist and illustrator who spent most of his career at the Chicago Tribune. Providing access to these materials can be a challenge because understanding them requires a knowledge of context. The two interns on the project this semester scanned and uploaded the original materials and started on the research phase of the project. Another intern will be stepping in next semester to do more research and provide enhanced metadata for cartoons that have already been scanned.
Intern Erica curated a selection of several cartoons for us to post as the semester winds down here, so stay tuned! We'll have more of these the share in the future.
Editorial cartoon depicting men standing in a line beside a sign labeling it as the "1913 bread line." There is another sign that reads "He kept us out of work." Published in the Chicago Tribune on November 5, 1916.
