The picture looks like it is at least fifty yeras old. It is in black and white (actually sepia) and it's pretty clear. It looks faded and old, but it's hard to pinpoint a specific year. The texture feels kind of like cardboard and the corners are ripped. Also, it's smaller than today's pictures. The picture seems to be located in a farm, maybe an orange grove. In the middle there is a row of dirt and the cart is being pulled by horse.
My guess is that they took this picture to show that white people worked just as hard as minorities. Notice how, in the picture, there are latinos, blacks and whites together. Maybe it was just a picture showing the people who worked. It could come from the owner of the land.
A lot of things have changed since then. For example, the style of the photo is vastly different. Nobody takes pictures in black and white anymore. Plus they all take pictures in digital instead. The picture itself has some differences from then until now. Not that many of us wear suspenders, but in the picture everyone is wearing suspenders instead of belts. Also, they are wearing really old-school hats.
