This photograph (taken in 1912) shows Clarence and Harry Salzgaber with newly harvested baskets of sweet corn. The Salzgaber family operated a truck farm and greenhouses in Grandview Heights on the east side of what is now Grandview Avenue. The family farmhouse still stands on the northeast corner of Grandview and First Avenue which at the time of publication was home to the Tri-Village Photography Studio.
