DescriptionA large delivery of wool arrives by horse drawn carts at the Armory between George Oberne & Co. Wool & Hides and John A. Lee Lumber Co on South First Street in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The space between the warehouses is bustling with many stacked and loaded carts piled high will wool stuffed sacks, drivers, workers, and passerbyers. Much of the wool is arriving from William McIntosh Ranch. The Armory, the two-story brick building behind George Oberne's, has stars set onto the bricks in a horizontal line along the top of the side of the bulding.
