Scope and content
A new crop of summer Sunkist oranges had just arrived at the Albertson's Food Center on Pacific Avenue on October 23, 1957. Hanging flags directed customers to the Sunkist display in the produce aisle. Fresh, juicy, and sweet oranges were being sold at 2 lbs. for 35 cents, a real bargain. Stacks of oranges were contained in wire containers along with signs advising consumers that although some of the oranges may be green tinged, they are actually ripe. Photograph ordered by Sunkist Growers, Inc.
