Photograph of ten assembled pieces of gas regulator equipment created by the Wilgus Manufacturing Company. The parts are metal-cast with embedded inscriptions identifying the company and, on some, the part number, for example: “Wilgus Mfg. Co. L. A. Cal.," and "518-725." They are displayed on a wooden plank supported by 3 wooden stands, against board backdrop. Three men look from behind the backdrop. The location is an industrial setting in a brick-walled room, perhaps the Wilgus Manufacturing plant located at 1722 East Sixteenth Street from 1921 to at least 1944.
