Applicants crowd around a stage in a Bowery theater in hopes of being chosen by the Bowery Comeback Association for a chance to start life anew, January 26, 1948. The association announced a plan whereby it would give one man each month a chance to climb back to respectability by providing new clothing, a shave, a haircut, a decent hotel room, and spending money to help him find work.

The Rev. Mr. George Bolton, left, a former skid row derelict, speaks to a denizen of the Bowery as another sleeps in the doorway of the Bowery Mission, December 12, 1956. The 77-year-old Bowery Mission, one of several, dispenses soup, soap, and salvation. The Rev. Mr. Bolton often told the men about the "miracle" that lifted him from the gutter.
