Description
Photograph of men working on a celery field in Playa Del Rey, 1925. Men in work gloves and hats pick celery plants from the soil at center and set them in small boxes. Some men stand with plants in their hands while others dig in the soil on their hands and knees. An automobile stands behind the field on the left while a truck to transport the boxes of plants stands on the right. Electrical poles stand along the background while hills sit in the distance.
