Description
Photograph of a prune drying yard in Santa Clara County, [s.d.]. The ground on at center and extending back to the left is covered in row after row of rectangular trays. Each tray is only partially filled with prunes and a set of tracks run on the right of them. On the other side of the tracks many men fill the stacks of trays with prunes out of the many piles of boxes. In the background on the left men appear to be emptying the trays of dried prunes.
