Sometimes, I wonder if there’s something he doesn’t tell me about...
Thank you very much for this information. This was interesting to know. :)
I hope you don’t mind if I ask a question about a nearly obscure newsboy but I’m curious to know if you have any more info in regards to Emil Kahune, one of the strikers. Why was he so beloved? Did he ever get released from the Gerry society?
Unfortunately I don’t know much about what became of Emil Kahune/H. H. Keuhn. However, these are a few articles that mention him:
From The New York Herald, July 21:
Emil Kahune, a striker, who refused to give his address, was arrested and taken to the West Thirtieth street police station. A crowd of newsboys followed him, cheering him lustily all the way. At the police station the youngsters carried him large quantities of candy and fruit, and when he was led away to the rooms of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children his mouth was full of delicacies.
From The Sun, July 21:
Milo Green, a 15-year-old newsboy, tried to sell Journals and Worlds in the doorway of the uptown office of the World last evening. The strikers gathered across the street and threatened him vocally until a woman came along and tried to buy a paper of him. The strikers swept across the street, then snatched the paper from the woman’s hands and tore it to pieces. Then one of them, Emil Kahune, jumped on Green.
Hugh Coleman, a lawyer, dropped off a Broadway car at this stage of the fight, took Kahune over his knee and spanked him soundly. The rest of the mob assaulted Coleman until a policeman came to his aid and arrested Kahune.
From The New York Times, July 21:
H. H. Kuehn, a striking newsboy, fifteen years old, was arrested last night for tearing up some newspapers belonging to another boy at Thirty-fourth Street and Sixth Avenue. At the West Thirtieth Street Station House he refused to give his address. Before the Gerry Society agent arrived a number of the prisoner’s comrades went to the station house with large quantities of fruit and candy for him. When Kuehn was taken to the Gerry society headquarters a large number of the boys followed him.
As always, if anybody has more information, please do share it!
This would make a great animatic
DID TOMMY JUST CONFIRM THAT SPRACE IS CANON-
Can’t believe it’s been 2 years already. Memento Mori.
(Yes I didn’t realize I switched their main colors till I was done with it so consider clothes swap)

Happy 30th Anniversary Newsies!!
The OG, the one that’s been there from the beginning for me. Always and forever my number one favourite movie and my number one obsession. I was two when it came out and it has been in my life since then. I always say that Newsies raised me and influenced me all of my life and it’s true. I think I would be a different person if it wasn’t in my life. I will be forever grateful to this movie for always being there. Here’s to 30 years of Carrying the banner!! 🗞❤️
Thank you so much 🥺🥰
♓️ Characterboard/Moodboard for Jack Kelly as a Pisces.
🐠 It’s Pisces season y’all! 😂 Thought it would be fun to make this. Jack Kelly’s traits remind me a lot of the traits associated with Pisces. This is my first attempt at a moodbord/characterboard so I’m not entirely sure if it’s great.

Woahh. I honestly can’t believe that this is real. How-?
📰 This here's the famous Jack Kelly. He once escaped jail on the back of Teddy Roosevelt's carriage. Made all the papes.
🌙 Just wanted to practice trying a new style than the one I usually have
