Description
Photograph of the interior of an unidentified factory where a worker is "machining heat exchanger bodies", ca.1930. A man in sooty coveralls stands right of the foreground, with his back turned. He faces a large cylindrical machine, and holds a wheel with his left hand, as his right hand works with another unseen part of the machine. A large piece of rope is coiled on the floor, at left, in front of a platform, and the machine with the word "Pona?" on it.
