Twelve-year-old Elva Montelongo from Dayton, Oregon holds up a handwritten sign reading, "9 1/2 crates strawberries, Elva." She works in the field with her family, picking strawberries. These 9 1/2 crates earned her family $5.70. Photographs from this series were published in the Valley Migrant League's Opportunity News on August 27, 1965.
