Workers unload wooden crates of Boy Blue apples and sacks of other produce at a market, with the crates stacked and the loading work caught mid-motion. Boy Blue was a named apple variety, and the label on its crates was a way growers and shippers advertised a specific fruit to buyers. Pictures like this one show how produce moved from the farm to the public through the market, and the handling of crates and bags shows the physical labor that made that trade possible.
