Worker spraying tobacco leaves for the Florida Cigar Company in Quincy, Florida

  Accompanying note: "The leaves are dampened under a fine spray before going to the stripper in the plant, who pulls the stem from each leaf, dividing the leaf into left and right wrappers. Care must be taken to keep the wrappers separate in left and right bundles, since the machines can be set for either left or right wrapping."
