Public domain historical photograph of Wally and Chris Sanchez on a tractor in Redlands, California, circa 1928. Father and son portrait from the Internet Archive.


A father and son photographed together on a tractor in Redlands, California. The record names them as Wally and Chris Sanchez but gives no further detail about their identities or relationship to the land.

Redlands sits in the citrus belt of southern California, and the tractor suggests the family worked in agriculture during a period when the region's orchards were expanding.

The photograph comes from a collection digitised through California Revealed, a statewide programme that makes historical material from California libraries, archives, museums and historical societies publicly available. Items entering this archive through the programme originate from many separate local institutions across the state, so the shared source tag indicates where the photograph was digitised rather than where it was taken.

The image itself was made by an unknown photographer. No studio name or company appears in the record, and nothing further is known about the circumstances under which it was taken or what became of the subjects.

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