Photo of Produce Company's Parade Floats Displaying the Impact of Irrigation in the Salt River Valley of Arizona, c. 1925

Original 8 x 10 photograph, uncredited and undated, showing five parade floats with messaging from the John F. Barker Produce Company, a Phoenix-based fruit and vegetable wholesaler incorporated in 1914. This photo may date from April 1925, when an article in the Arizona Republic notes the company's participation in a "Prosperity Parade" held as part of the "Elks High Jinks and Industrial Show" in Phoenix. The first two floats are titled "Before Irrigation" and "After Irrigation," with cactus-covered scrubland compared to a bounty of produce. The other floats bear displays showing off eggs, fruit, and local products.
