Samenvatting
A description of the historical event and the pictures made by
the reporters. Most of them used large plate cameras. Only Otto
Hagel (an illegal immigrant) used a 35mm camera, and it was he
who made the first photo-essay on the strike, which was widely
published. The author also notes that two press photos showing
the strikers as victims were the first pictures of this type to
be published. ""These pictures verified the value of on-the-spot
news photography''.
