Boys Swimming in the North Branch of the Chicago River, 1919 | ||||
|
These young boys swimming in the North Branch of the Chicago River in 1919 exhibit just how little was needed to swim in a
region filled with waterways. No suits, no designated public beach, just a warm summer day is all these children needed for
fun and games.
