Description
A cabinet photograph of R.M. Pollard in a Merchants Ice wagon, Tracy, Los Angeles, 1906. The driver is seated at the front of the vehicle and holding the reins yoked to two horses. On the side of the wagon is "Merchants Ice", while a placard at Pollard's side has a telephone number. A side panel on the vehicle has the name of a storage and supply company. The wagon is parked next to a brick structure and at the background are some railroad cars. The photographer's stamp is on the reverse along with a pencil inscription, "RM Pollard 1906." With crayon scribbles, stains, soiling, warping and abrasions, the overall condition is good.
