Description
Ice delivery became a lucrative business when it became available to the San Gorgonio Pass area. Ice was hauled from San Bernardino and delivered to Beaumont, Banning, and Palm Springs in large 300-pound slabs, often used in the form for cooling cabinets. This ice delivery wagon serving Beaumont is pictured here with a cake of ice being weighed at the rear of the wagon. Postcard.
