Description
Photograph of an exterior view of the Sunkist processing plant, 1936. A set of train tracks and a parked automobile can be seen in front of the long, lightly-colored warehouse-style building, whose loading door appears to be open towards the right. Just at the nadir of the hemicylindrical roof, a collection of signs reads "Oranges", "San Fernando Heights Orange Ass'n", "Sunkist" and "Grapefruit". A train car can be seen parked next to the building to the right, while the silhouette of another automobile is visible to the far left under the shade of a tree.
