Name/Title

Rhum's Phosphate spreading

Description

Black and white photographic print of a truck spreading phosphate; large cloud of dust at back of truck where the spreader blades would be working; there is a man in a T-shirt standing on running board of truck bed; the image is blurred because the film and/or shutter was too slow to stop motion. According to donor, this picture was taken in 1948 with a ca. 1912 Brownie box camera by either J. T. or Mrs. J. T. Murphy. (Assumption made that this is the spreading Rhum's Phosphate since this photo is in a series on that subject). Donation, 11/13/1983. paper
