Ginocchio-Jones Fruit Company Collection
Scope and Contents
The collection contains over 80 letters, telegrams, bills and invoices from 1915-1917—primarily between the Ginocchio-Jones Fruit Company, a local Missouri produce company, and the George F. Johnston Company, a grape producer in California. The records provide insight into the day-to-day business exchanges concerning the quality and distribution of produce over long distances. Notable are the telegrams and railway documents, which reveal how the development of certain communication and transportation technologies allowed for the geographic expansion of crop businesses.
