Description
Photograph of a ditch-digging machine on Washington Boulevard, [s.d.]. A man in a hat stands at right pointing towards the ditch-digging machine along the raw road just in front of him. A sign on the machine reads "Town of Oraro(?) Street Dept.". A tree reaches over the ditch from a hill on the left. Other trees reach over from the grass hill as the ditch curves toward the right background.
