* The Baker boy is commonly associated with Newspaper boys, also called newsboys or "newsies." These were the main distributors of newspapers to the general public from the mid-19th to the early 20th century in the United States. Standing on street corners, walking through neighborhoods, and hawking their papers throughout every city, they first appeared with the rise of mass circulation newspapers. Newsboys tended to be among the poorest individuals of society, often seen sleeping on the streets.
