Man on top of a tuber filled truck bed

A photograph of a man standing on top of a truck bed filled with some sort of tuber, quite possibly sweet potatoes. This was from a farm in Covales, Montana, where Mamerto "Max" Sulay and other men would sometimes migrate to for seasonal harvest. The location and date of the photograph is inscribed on the back. This was from Max's personal collection.
