Description
Photograph of storm drain construction, showing rows of pipe sections, [s.d.]. In the foreground at left, a large dirt slope can be seen. Thick clusters of grass and vegetation sit at the top of the slope. A similar slope is visible to the far right. At center, a row of concrete sections for a drain pipe can be seen extending into the background. A man wearing a cap can be standing near a row of pipes holding an object with his left arm. Three additional men can be seen in the background at center beside a large machine. In the extreme background, another man can be seen near clusters of pipes and a small truck. To the right, a small horse stands on the top of a hill. Mountain ranges are visible in the distance.
