Description

Four local men stand in foreground facing the camera in front of a log and frame building partially visible directly behind them. At their feet and behind them are numerous potato sacks apparently filled with potatoes. Behind them are also stacks of wooden crates filled with potatoes and one crate is at their feet, tipped up to exhibit its potato contents. The men are identified as: (l to r) George Black, Ross Sheeley, (apparently misidentified on the photo), Walter Pippel, and Clyde Sherman. It appears to be a clear sunny day, probably in the fall after at least some of the potato harvest is complete.
