DescriptionThis image depicts a large number of wool wagons waiting to unload at the George Oberne & Company on First Street in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The wagons can be seen in the large clearing near the buildings on the left side of the frame. All of these wagons are pulled by horses. Several men can be seen milling around the wagons. The large sign on the outside of this building reads "Geo. Oberne & Co. Wool. Hides. & Pelts". A single wooden telephone pole can be seen in the center of the crowd of wagons.
