Description
Photograph of teams of horses and wagons moving through a dirt field, ca.1910. To the left, three large wooden wagons can be seen being pulled by teams of horses. A single man sits at the front each wagon guiding a team of four horses. In addition to the three wagons on the left, a group of five wagons can be seen on the right in the background. Each wagon on the left has a large compartment at the back of the wagon filled with dirt, but these compartments remain empty for each of the wagons on the right. In the background to the right, a small group of buildings near trees and utility poles are visible. In the background at center, a small building with a sign on its roof that reads "Mason Case Co." sits adjacent to a large sign that reads: "Firestone". To the left, a long line of utility poles stretch into the extreme background. A single water tower can also be seen at the horizon. In the extreme foreground, a plowed dirt field is shown.
