Description
Photograph of a close-up of machinery in a rubber factory, ca.1945. At center is a large shiny metal roller which appears to be flattening clumped and unprocessed rubber. The rubber appears to be coming from above the roller and emerges flattened from underneath. The flattened rubber appears to continue to the left on a conveyor belt. The machinery reads "Vaughn" to the lower right.
