Description

Black and white photograph showing men loading crates of celery onto a railroad car. In the foreground of the image is presumed to be one of the Moses brothers, whose load is being shipped. He is wearing a three-piece suit, a pocket watch, glasses, and a hat. His right arm is resting on an early truck, on the back of which stand two young men in overalls. They are loading crates of celery onto a railroad car. An African American man can be seen just inside open doors of the car. At the left of the image is a pile of wood leaned up against the railroad car. On the frame of the image, someone has written, "Shipped by M. Moses Feb. 16th 1926, F. G. E. #32107, Sanford, Fla.; Sold by A. H. Moses and Sons Feb. 24th, New York City."
