Cheers Everyone: The Story Behind This Photograph
This jubilant bar crowd captures December 5, 1933—the day the Twenty‑First Amendment ended thirteen years of Prohibition. No passwords, no lookouts, no teacups masquerading as highballs: just raised glasses and unguarded smiles. For a generation schooled in secrecy, the right to toast in public felt like daylight after a long tunnel.
The repeal did more than legalize a drink. Breweries roared back to life; farmers shipped grain; coopers, truckers, bartenders, and musicians found steady work again. Customs learned to tax what revenuers had chased. The clink of glass became the sound of economic revival as well as celebration.
People also absorbed a civics lesson. The nation had amended the Constitution to ban alcohol—and amended it again when the costs outweighed the promises. In that course correction lay a durable faith: that a democracy can admit a mistake and mend it.
“Cheers Everyone” holds that faith in a single frame. It is the look of relief turning into laughter, of private defiance stepping into the open, of a country learning how to be ordinary again.
