Profile angle of A.G. Busby in chair, with wall and door in background, Fresno, 1935

Description:
Profile angle of A.G. Busby, from chest up. In the background, jackets can be seen hung against a wall with a door in it. Busby wears two long-sleeved, button shirts. Busby's whole name was most likely, "Adam Gusty Busby," and was nicknamed "Gus". Less frequently under other records, he's been recorded as "Gusty A. Busby" as well. The article details how the federal New Deal rulings of the Franklin D. Roosevelt administration have overreached, and possibly ruined Busby's livelihood as a cotton farmer. According to the story, the federal government discovered Busby leased a large portion of land he was not allowed to lease, and ordered him to plow most of his crop. The tone of the column is that of anti-big government and regulation.
