Description
Here is a typical confab about cattle between prospective buyer E. J. Schwindt (left) and salesman Stanley Martin at the L.A. Union Stockyards on April 11, 1953. Sometimes it takes a few minutes of haggling before a terse agreement is made. The buyer makes out the check and that's that. No one has ever reneged on a deal in 22 years of business! A sign reads, Harold Commission Co.
