Employee works with tropical fish at a hatchery: Tampa, Florida

• Kiki FL said:

  Excellent nostalgic image!

• pak mat aka M_Noor said:

  Indeed, it is very nostalgic. I was just 4 when this photo was captured. I hope the young man in this picture is still alive and would definitely be pleased to see this. I think today he is about 70 years old.

• Gay Historian said:

  Love the shirt!

• Noeli Gladden said:

  Any idea what the name of the fish farm/hatchery was?

  I wish food today came in glass cans!!

• Laurabelle said:

  I don't have a garden to produce vegetables for canning, but I do can chicken stock or beef stock. Home canning is not as widespread as it used to be, but it's still common enough that my local large drugstore carries canning supplies.

• Silke Gerstenkorn said:

  Great collection!!

• tutu.smith said:

  My mom and dad used to stay up very late at night canning food from our garden. This was after a full days work. They used an old pressure cooker to seal the jars. The results were delicious.

• Robert Rountree said:

  This looks like a normal stack of preserves from my Georgia Grand parents basement shelves in the 1950's (but they had more Peaches and watermelon)

  Jean Henri Fabre (1823-1915), French entomologist: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jean_Henri_Fabre

• Kilted Cowboy said:

  this appears to be taken about a day before his death... he was mounted with a stick pin through his gut and is preserved in a museum drawer....

• swanq said:

  A biography of Fabre, 'Fabre, Poet of Science' was reviewed in the NYT of September 21, 1913. query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=9906E7D6113BE633A... And a July 1912 article query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=9B03E6DD1630E233A... has the headline "HENRI FABRE DYING OF HUNGER IN FRANCE; Scientist Whom Darwin Regarded as One of World's Greatest Men Is 88 Years Old."
