The comments below the one of the kids makeing the Cambell clothes challenged the text with the picture about the place being dirty. It was not a dirty apartment. Also the photo was posed, they were all dressed up, one boy was even in a suit.

When you click on the links I provided you see a small sized version of the photo. Once on the linked page then click on the photo to enlarge it and then scroll around the photo. There are awesome details to be seen in the larger photos.
Also, on the linked page there are comments below the photos that may give more info on the photo (scroll down).
In photo #3, the Singer machines are crated up for shipment.
