A farmer guides a mule-drawn wagon across the main street of Eufaula, Oklahoma, in 1940, passing through a town where older agricultural traditions meet the growing presence of automobiles, gas stations, and roadside businesses. Hand-painted signs advertising fuel prices and garages line the street, underscoring the expanding influence of the automobile, while the wagon and its driver represent enduring self-reliance and the rhythms of farm work. Captured during the late Depression era.
