Agar-Agar plant, c. 1950

Two men working with some equipment. Handwritten on back: "Agar Agar plant Jensen Beach." Jensen Beach once had a factory for agar-agar, a gelatin substance made from seaweed that had many uses. The factory opened in 1945 and continued operation until 1949, when the factory was severely damaged in a hurricane.
