Frank DeLucchi poses in a suit beside his vintage car among California orchards in 1915. Public-domain historical photograph from agricultural era.


The archive record shows a man identified variously as Fred DeLucci and Frank DeLucchi standing beside an automobile in 1915. The photograph carries subject terms linking it to agricultural and business history, and the caption mentions California orchards in the background.

The record was digitised through California Revealed, a statewide programme that makes material from California libraries, archives, museums and historical societies publicly available online. Items reaching the archive through this programme come from many separate local institutions across the state.

The photographer is not identified. The discrepancy between the title's "Fred DeLucci" and the caption's "Frank DeLucchi" suggests uncertainty about which form of the name is correct, though both may refer to the same person. No further information about the subject or the circumstances of the photograph is provided in the record.

Compiled from the catalogue record and reference notes on the formats and events involved. The archive record above is the primary source.
