Photograph of workers loading Sunkist oranges in crates to be shipped, ca.1930. A man wearing suspenders and a hat can be seen at center with three crates of oranges in front of him on a conveyor belt. At least five women can be seen behind the conveyor belt packing oranges in other crates that read, "Sunkist Oranges".
