January 1938. Bait seller in Key West, Florida. View full size. 3¼ x 4¼ nitrate negative by Arthur Rothstein for the Farm Security Administration.
I've lived in Key West. The stores are pretty much gone, although the people look much the same. We used to go out onto the flats when the mullet would run and use wire trash baskets to scoop up hundreds of mullet. Oily and bony, they were cheap and plentiful, so, hell, we ate a lot of greasy mullet.
He became a barber of some renown.
