    I believe, but can't prove, this is Stringfellow Acid Pits in Jurupa Valley, California. If correct, it was a property with about 11 unlined ponds used to dump waste acids and other bad stuff. It was closed in 1972 when traces of waste were allegedly found in a nearby water district's wells.

    It's a visual shock to see materials handled like this in the United States.

    I hope the photographer was upwind.

    This was before the Department of Transportation had standardized placarding on trucks hauling various materials. Nowadays, there are placards on trucks that correspond to a Emergency Response Guide book. Truck on fire? Here's what you need to know...

    I remember seeing acid waste sumps at various enterprises. The local District Attorney's crime laboratory had an acid waste sump.

    I see a Peterbuilt emblem on the cab and think this tractor is a late 1950s 352. Feel free to correct me if you see something different.

    I had this ready to post but I had forgotten that the following related photo had already been posted. Your comments on this photo are still welcome.

    Looks like it's probably down here on Pigeonhouse road maps.osi.ie/publicviewer/#V2,719062,733954,11,9.

    Presumably that's a pile of the tobacco leaf itself (removed from the barrel) on the slip way?
  • derangedlemur said:
    They probably used it to make JP Navy Cut Extra Salty.

    derangedlemur Did they not know that flavoured tobacco is on its way to being outlawed? I found this in the Indo from Tuesday 17 May 1921: www.flickr.com/photos/20727502@N00/27127766860/ And this from the Examiner on Monday 16 May 1921: www.flickr.com/photos/20727502@N00/27369909746/
