The shipping department at Brown and Haley in September of 1921. In their pre-Almond Roca days, before 1923, the company manufactured a wide range of chocolates, taffy, mints and hard candies. Many of the chocolates were still marketed under the company's original moniker "Oriole Chocolates." Here workers in a long, narrow room sort candy packages of many shapes and sizes for delivery. A large sign in the background admonishes "No Smoking." G33.1-123
