Diesel pumps on the Record Ranch.
Transcribed Notes: Transcribed from photo sleeve: "Detroit diesels powering pumps on Hank Record's property, Amargosa Valley, Nye County, Nevada, about 1956. (Diesels were installed by Mantzer Detroit Diesel out of Sparks, Nevada.) Records brought the trailer in the background from Prescott, Arizona; it was the first structure in the Amargosa Valley Farm Area aside from those on the T & T Ranch. The trees are Balm of Gileads."
