Description
Access to this collection is generously supported by Arcadia funds. Date based on image ark no. 21198/zz002j8xf2 Photograph of an assemblage 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. U.S.A. 4-inch." Behind the assemblage is a wooden platform with stacked pieces of unassembled gas regulator equipment. Chalk writing on 2 pieces is visible, reading: "Iron Thread XH," and "Steel Thread XH." The location is an industrial setting in a brick-walled room with a sliding wooden door, perhaps the Wilgus Manufacturing plant located at 1722 East Sixteenth Street from 1921 to at least 1944.
