Description: Paperboy, Iowa City, Iowa, 1940, by Arthur Rothstein. This is a cropped image, looking east into the 200 block of Washington Street. Although cropped from this image, the Jefferson Hotel is just right of the carrier (to his left) at a spot now the storefront of Herteen & Stocker Jewelers. The building in the immediate background was demolished to make space for Blackhawk Minipark, now part of the downtown Pedmall (pedestrian walkway) which occupies that block of Dubuque Street. The theater marquee in the background to the right of the carrier is for the historic Englert Theatre at 221 Washington Street. This is an image of a place or building that is listed on the National Register of Historic Places in the United States of America. Its reference number is 01000911.
