Description
Photograph of an exterior view of the Samson Rubber Company in Compton, [s.d.]. The large, low building can be seen in the background at left. It has a flat roof, and several large rectangular windows can be seen along its perimeter. Smokestacks protrude from the roof, and the name of the company is painted on the side of the building at left. A wide road runs from the foreground at left to the background at right, and a line of utility poles borders it at left.
