Scope and content
A worker moves barrels with a dolly outside of Nalley's warehouses in Nalley Valley. Marcus Nalley began his one man operation in 1918; by the fifties his company was marketing 49 different products. In 1953, the company processed 10 million pounds of cucumbers into Nalley pickles and 11 million pounds of potatoes into potato chips. Their payroll and purchasing power helped fuel the Tacoma economy.
