Newspapers were sold in several ways. There were news-stands or kiosks, where you could go to buy the paper (or purchase magazines). Also, newspapers had newsboys (and a few newsgirls) who spread out all over the city to sell papers; they would situate themselves in the shopping districts, business districts, near subways, anyplace that was not served by a news-stand. And some newspapers mailed the paper to readers through the US postal service; this was a very popular way for out of state and rural readers, as well as people who did not live near a city, to receive a newspaper at their home.
