Description
Photograph of unidentified factory exterior, showing roof and smokestacks, ca.1940. On the left and right, the roofs of two adjoining buildings can be seen. Four open windows can be seen on the factory on the left, and a group of three windows is visible on the building on the right. Between the two buildings, a thin metallic smokestack can be seen. A thick trail of black smoke can be seen emerging from the large pipe. To the left and right of the tall smokestack, another smokestack can be seen. The smaller smokestack on the left is seen emitting a thin stream of smoke.
