Description
Photograph of an interior view of a cannery in Visalia, 1900-1940. The cannery floor is covered with long canning machines set up in neat aisles. The machines consist of what looks like a picnic table with metal racks on top, and stacks of cans are visible at the ends of the machines. There are many workers, mostly women, standing between the machines and looking up at the viewer. An intricate network of rafters and cables is visible near the ceiling of the cannery.
