Description

Photograph of women workers loading oranges in crates to be shipped, ca.1930. A woman can be seen to the right of center wearing an apron loading oranges from a large bin at left into wooden crates reading "Sunkist" in front of her. At least five other women can be seen in a row behind her also loading oranges. A conveyor belt can be seen at left. Numbers including "47", "46", and "56" can be seen in front of the women on what appears to be a contraption holding the crates in place.
