Image description

Women sort the various waste materials for the collection, taken in Solothurn on 12 March in the war year 1941. Schoolchildren collect the waste materials once a month in forty different districts and bring them to a “quarter woman”. These are then transported by lorry to a large collection point, where former unemployed people take over the sorting.
