Salute!
Circa 1935. Mississippi Delta.
They earned $1.50 a day—on a good one.
But look at the style.
Wool vests. Brimmed hats. Pressed slacks.
Dignity was never out of fashion.
These men walked through poverty with their heads high and their collars higher.
Because sometimes, looking sharp was the armor.
Even when life wrinkled, they stayed pressed.
