Monterey Park Socks
Description: Monterey Park is a suburban city in the San Gabriel Valley. It is notable for it's Chinese American majority, although it has undergone changes over the years, from a predominantly Taiwanese Chinese population to a mainland Chinese and Hong Konger population. I explored it for my series, "California Fool's Gold," in 2010. https://ericbrightwell.com/2010/09/23/california-fools-gold-exploring-monterey-park-%e8%92%99%e7%89%b9%e5%88%a9%e5%85%ac%e5%9b%ad/

Description: In 1899 the marine biologist from Japan Gennosuke Kodani formed a partnership with Alexander Allan. Together they established an abalone cannery. The enterprise was so successful it eventually accounted for 75% of the abalone sold in California. This cannery was in operation until 1928.
