Description
Photograph of men moving small metal bricks with a long set of tongs, [s.d.]. The two men can be seen at right and are both wearing light-colored jackets and dark pants. One of the men has a pair of heavy gloves and is holding a long pair of metal tongs. The tongs are holding a small chunk of metal over a cylindrical tank partially buried in the ground. Two other similar tanks can be seen, and a metal pipe runs behind them at left. The walls of the room are made of corrugated metal.
