This image was taken for a story that ran in The Manawatu Evening Standard on 22 February 1958, page 11: "A trolley of imported foodstuffs being loaded into a 1000 cu. ft. cylinder at the new Wellington fumigation station. This consignment includes shelled walnuts from Italy and groundnuts from Africa. New Zealand's modern fumigation enable her to receive goods from countries with which she could not safely trade previously."
