George Shailer (1848-1918) was a well known local photographer in Palmerston North at the end of the 19th century. He later established an orchard in Scandia Street (now Albert Street). George Shailer is at right spraying the fruit trees, helped by (possibly) his son Alfred Shailer and another unidentified person. The print was taken from broken glass negative, as indicated by the line running through the middle of it.
