Description: 1976MONSANTO TEXTILES COMANY, Blacksburg, South CarolinaAerial view of the Monsanto plant factory taken on August 4, 1976 by Lavoy Studio, Lancaster, SCPhoto measures 10.75" by 13.5" and is mounted on a cardboard that measures 14.75" by 17.5"In the lower right corner of the photo on the front it is signed Lavoy '76. On the back of the cardboard is the Lavoy Studio round gold color label and the stamp area that indicates the photo was taken 8-4-76 and order no. 44505-3.In the background is the white water tower and running next to it a train which I believe is the Norfolk Southern Railroad (I am not an expert but believe this to be the RR behind the building) pulling what looks like shipping containers. In the front is the parking area where you see employee and guest cars from the 1970's era. In the front of the building on the grass is the Monsanto sign.This photo was found at an estate cleanout outside of Charlotte.Condition, please see photos with this listing. There is some age and use wear, including soiling and scratch marks mostly visible in the white cardboard areas around the photo in upper left and right sides of photo. I took some photos of these area so you can see what I mean. In the upper left corner of the photo itself there is a scratch in the sky area. Looks like light old moisture stain on the back. Please view photos closely to be sure you are ok with all before buying. It is pre-owned, being sold "as is" as was found.*** NOTE: This original vintage large photo will be shipped flat in between cardboard so will be oversized which adds to shipping cost.
