Description
Photograph of two workers pulling a rubber tire from its mold at an unidentified factory in California Heights, 1930-1940. The tire mold is at center and is a large metal cylinder. Two men in work clothes and heavy gloves are pulling a large tire out of the mold. The tire is rounded and has no tread, similar to a tire on a large aircraft. Many hoses and chains hang from the ceiling. The back of another man is visible at right.
