The Three Fig Cranks


"The Three Fig Cranks; July 17, 1900.
Niles. A.E. Schwarz, John Rock, G. Eisen."

.
The Three Fig Cranks would make a great title for a movie.

This picture is in two archives in Fremont - the California Nursery Historical Park and the Museum of Local History. The museum has the negative and on the envelope is this "The Three Fig Cranks; July 17, 1900. Niles. A.E. Schwarz, John Rock, G. Eisen."

This “Fig Cranks” photo led to some interesting documents that show a connection between California Nursery Company and Fancher Creek Nursery with the fig caprification experiments in 1900.
