Pardon me if this has been asked before but I was wondering if you had any information on the popular past times that the Newsies liked to partake in? I heard from a friend that they enjoyed watching vaudeville performances but I couldn’t find a source on that.

Yes vaudeville was very popular among the newsies! According to Children of the City: At Work and at Play by David Nasaw the boys used to sit in the cheap seats in front of the stage and throw things at people they didn’t like. This meant that actors would often play to the boys in the cheap seats rather than playing to the boxes as they do now because the children could destroy a whole performance if they didn’t like you.

Other common pastimes were penny arcades, nickelodeon theatres, and gambling games like craps. Boys staying at the lodging house also had access to a games room featuring dominoes, cards, and a billiards table.

If you’re interested in learning more, I recommend Children of the City very highly. There is also a great chapter about newsboy culture in Darkness and Daylight, which, while definitely biassed to encourage sympathy for the charity that published it, is still a great primary resource on New York in the 1890s.

So it’s my birthday today and I decided to draw Crutchie with a cake

☕️ Cuphead and Mugman make quite a pair. When debtors spot em, they’re in for a scare.

💥 Happy 2/22/2022. The new cuphead show is a real blast. Really love the old timey feel.

Happy 10th Anniversary Newsies!!

I never could have imagined how much this show would change my life when I watched it for the first time. This show has helped me get through some of the hardest moments in my life and is my comfort show.

Congrats to all the cast and crew who has made such an impact on so many lives!

Newsies forever, second to none!
