Description

This photo shows a group of Toronto letter carriers in 1892. The exact location that this photograph was taken is unclear but Albert Jackson can be seen in the 5th row, the 8th person from the left. Although he experienced racial discrimination when he got the job at the General Post Office in 1882, Jackson worked there for 36 years.
