Description Fred J. Brandt in seat of Model T Ford truck used during the prune season for hauling prunes to Brandt Prune Dehydrator, the largest commercial dehydrator in the county during the 1930s, according to Milt Brandt, his son. In winter, a sprayer was mounted on the truck for prune orchard spraying.

An identical photo was found in Box 27-Miscellaneous Industry. But then could not locate the photo in Box 4-West St. (300 Block) so (second found) photo was moved from Box 27 to Box 4. Electronic image is stored in Box 27-Misc. Industry because Box 4 was already archived onto DVD. Find real photo in Box 4, find EI in Box 27. This page was reprinted because the second scanning of this image was much better than original scanning and so it was attached as the better image.
