Description
Photograph of men performing tree surgery, San Gabriel grapevine, ca.1935. The wide tree stands at center with thick, twisted branches and pieces of wood holding it in place from either side. A man in overalls chops at the right side of the trunk with a shovel-like tool. A second man stands in a hole dug beneath the tree. He uses a pick and hammer to chisel at the surrounding earth. A building stands behind the tree in the background.
