Tobacco pickers in a misty field, 1937

Morning mist hangs over the fruit trees at the edge of the field; a young woman with short fair hair, a dark cardigan over her apron, smiles as she strips a leaf from a tall plant and adds it to the bundle under her arm, another woman working further down the row; then an older man in a cap and a woman stoop together over the broad leaves. Tobacco was a crop of small family farms, which needed every hand at harvest.
