Scope and content
Candy product display by Harry Brown Confections. Included in the picture are circular tins of Pecan Parisian Rolls, Almond Omega and Pecan Caramel Rolls. Each candy is individually wrapped, some in foil. In 1944, the Haley family bought out the Brown family's interest in Brown & Haley. Harry Brown then formed his own company, with his son Alvin and his brother Charles, and designed his own candy line. He opened his plant at 1932 Pacific Ave. and had a military contract before his plant even opened. (TNT 7/19/1944, pg. 1)
