Photograph of workers loading bales of cotton into a warehouse at Los Angeles Harbor, [s.d.]. A line of small metal carts stretches from the foreground at left to the background at right. The closest car is empty, but the others are filled with large bales of cotton. At left, a man is wheeling a bale into an open warehouse using a dolly. At right, three other men are preparing to load another bale onto another dolly. In the background, stacks of cotton bales can be seen inside the warehouse.
