Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Until the close of the 19th century, many children in America were employed in farming, mills and mines or sold newspapers and fruits and vegetables on the streets.

Several federal efforts to ban child labor were struck down by the Supreme Court. An attempt...
