Description
Photograph of the interior of the Douglas Company's Santa Monica Plant, ca.1920. An assortment of what appear to be airplane parts sit in the foreground, and an area lined with large boxes can be seen at right. Several beams, which hold up the ceiling, stand at left, and a stair leading to a higher level appears behind them. In the distance, more machinery can be seen bathed in light from the outdoors.
