"PICKING ORANGES, RIVERSIDE, CALIFORNIA, U.S.A."
Color: Black; White
A stereoview, "Picking Oranges, Riverside, California, U.S.A.," by Strohmeyer and Wyman, published by Underwood & Underwood, Publishers, 1898. The image shows three workers, two on ladders and one standing on the ground, picking fruit and putting them in bags hanging by their sides. These bags are attached to straps hung over the men's shoulders. In the dirt area between the rows of trees there are several crates, some with fruit in them. The caption is at the lower right and includes the copyright date of 1898. At the far left is the publisher's name and locations of business and at the right are the locations of their studios. The reverse has information about the southern California orange industry. With light soiling, minor discoloration, and slight fading of the image, the overall condition is good.
