    When I saw your pictures (this one plus the others), it brought tears to my eyes. My grandfather pass away 25 years ago, and he was a cane sugar worker in Las Piedras area. I never got to see pictures of him at work, and if it was not for you I would probably never knew. Thanks soooo much for posting this pictures it meant a lot to me !!!

    Don O'Neill- Great!!! My father would travel for miles to deliver his fathers lunch to him in exactly the same way using these containers. It was in the 1930's as well. A quite man who spoke very little so my grandmother developed a routine to figure out where he was working each day before sending my father on this errand by checking the shed to see which tools he had taken with him that day. My grandfather was a laborer or "Journalero" in the fincas de tobacco y fruta etc. He worked and lived in the Rio Piedras area and lived in the Guaynabo Barrios of Rio, Hato Nuevo, and Capetillio over the years.
