Description

A photograph of a truck parked on a field at a produce farm, Los Angeles, ca. 1920s. The flat bed truck is shown parked in a field with crates of freshly picked pumpkins or squash. The far background shows the field with vegetation and at the far left distance appears to be a group of three persons. The place was a produce farm where a Japanese American family worked to harvest the produce. The images are most likely associated with the Sun Produce Co. farm. On the reverse is a Velox stamp with pencil and ink markings. With minor mirroring at the bottom right, creases, warping, the object is in good condition overall.
