Description
Photograph of an interior view of the Lockheed Corporation plant, ca.1940. Planes in the foreground face vertically, with their cockpits toward the camera, whereas planes in the back stand in two rows, facing each other horizontally. A thin walkway lined with painted boundaries cuts through center, and several men can be seen on it in the background. Two plastic(?) egg-like devices can be seen right of the walkway, beside what appears to be an area full of plane parts.
