Second from left is Macon Jasper Moye Sr. "Jack"
the genleman on the right just visible face only was Mr.Jimmy Davenport, he was a buyer for Imperial Tobacco Co.
My father, Harold Forbes, is near the center of this photo, standing to left side of the tobacoo row and wearing a white golf cap. He was in the tobacco business all his life- both farming and working in a number of Greenville warehouses, usually as sales manager or auctioneer. He's not playing either of those roles in this photo, but he's staring so intently at the buyers that I think it may have been his own tobacco that was being sold at the time!
6th from right with dark-framed glasses is the late John L. Howard Sr., vice-president of Greenville Tobacco Co. (also my father).
