Photograph was edited for publication purposes. Photograph caption dated June 29, 1964 reads "Brewery workers' strike ended officially on Sunday with a 3-1 vote in favor of accepting terms of the six large California breweries. However, this morning pickets were still on the lines. Here, two bottle house employees in a Valley brewery walk the picket line. They are, from left, Clarence Robertson and Arnold Pinto. They said they would probably be called back to work tomorrow." This Schlitz facility is at 7321 Woodman Avenue in Van Nuys.
