DescriptionHorse drawn delivery wagons and unidentified employees stand in front of the Southwestern Brewery & Ice Company located at East Fruit Avenue and the railroad tracks in Albuquerque, New Mexico. A series of brick and wood large warehouses fill the background. Two covered, wooden wheeled wagons and drivers with teams of two horses each are parked in the foreground. The side of one of the covered wagons reads, "SOUTH WESTERN BREWERY & ICE CO." The employees posing with the wagons wear hats, light-colored button-down shirts, dark trousers, boots, and suspenders. Silver mirroring and emulsion deterioration is occurring on the glass plate creating color distortion and emulsion loss on the image.
