Disaster recovery workers seated on a pickup truck after the failure of the Saint Francis Dam and resulting flood, Santa Clara River Valley (Calif.), 1928

Description:
Group portrait of about 24 disaster recovery workers seated on and standing next to a pickup truck after the failure of the Saint Francis Dam and resulting flood. The workers appear to be in a park with large trees shading wooden picnic tables with attached benches. A plank spanning a truck fender and picnic table and tools on the ground suggest that the men are engaged in construction or repair work. A painted sign in the door of the truck reads "...ople's...[Lum]ber Co. ...nta Paula." Santa Paula was one of the communities in the path of the flood. Beyond the park there is a metal rail fence, a street and a building across the street.
