North Main Street

This is a picture looking east down North Main Street in the Ludlow strikers' colony. It was one of the busiest streets in the strikers' colony. The photograph offers a glimpse of daily life during the strike. At the end of the street in the background is a snow pile. These piles, identified through photographs, appear to be made of large piles of snow with dolls or figures made of straw and clothes. These figures may have represented major figures related to the strike and could have given strikers a way to express their voice during the strike.
