Hello,
I am looking for more info or photos from workers in the 50’s and 60’s. My grandmother immigrated from Italy and worked there.
Thanks!!
Julie,
Your request has been sent to our archivist, Karen Osburn, and she will contact you.
My grandfather, Demetrio Brillo immigrated from Italy and worked most of his adult there at Comstock Canning Company. Any information you can give me would be appreciated.
I have sent your request on to our archivist Becky Chapin to see if she can tell you anything further.
