Description
Pinnix Tobacco Warehouse was located on south
Scales Street in Reidsville, NC. The warehouse was in business from
1910 until the early 1930s. This picture depicts a busy day at the
tobacco market. Tradition holds that the 1915 International Truck
seen here was the first motorized vehicle to bring tobacco to market
in Reidsville. It belonged to J. W. Johnson, standing by the wheel.
The tobacco was owned by T. J. Pritchett, seen seated on top of the
truck.
