The machine shop crew at the Sterling Borax Works in Tick Canyon (off of Davenport Road) in 1915.

Historian Meryl Adams (1988:156) identifies the men as follows (from left): Glen Wright, Falice Percivalle, Henry Hendley, Jim and "Pop."

Copy in SCV Historical Society collection identifies them as (from left) Glen Wright, Felice Percivalle, Henry Hendley, Ernice McNickel and Mike Maloy. "Felice" Percivalle is the correct spelling; see phone book from 1958, when he lived on 13th Street, Newhall.
