Description

Three photo strips (12 pictures; frames #5-9; #13-15; #36-39). The five picture strip apparently shows Ralph, a meatcutter at Lacey Foods, working on a large piece of meat. The four picture strip shows a different man wearing wire-rimmed glasses in grocer's apron and tie in three of the frames (#37-39) and another man wearing wider rim glasses in one photo (#36). The three picture strip (#13-15) shows a fourth man, also in a tie and grocer's apron, apparently adjusting a frame on a display.
