Description
Photograph of a woman marking numbers on white rubber pads, ca.1950. At center, a woman is visible applying a mechanical press to square pads of rubber. The woman is visible from the back to the left leaning with her elbows upon the table that contains the rubber pads. She appears to be writing "14" on the side of the pad that is being pushed down upon by the machine. To the right is a stack of nine similar pads with numbers on the sides, and to the left is a stack of ten pads without numbers written on them. The woman has dark wavy hair and is wearing a long sleeved ribbed shirt and bracelet.
