Interior of Screw Shop, Draper Company, 1903

 File — Box: 134, Folder: 147

Scope and Contents

Negative no.B147. Image depicts a view of the interior of the Draper Company Screw Shop. Machines line the left-hand wall, and large windows provide illumination, although the two closest windows appear to have been blocked with paper or some other material. Hanging lamps provide more light if needed. There appears to be sawdust on the floor. The Draper Company manufactured textile machinery, primarily looms, and manufactured some, if not all of the parts, including screws. See Negative 145, in this box, for a view of the shop with two male workers visible. 8 x 10 in. See Collection 6612 P, Box 12, Folder 4, Item 147 for print of this negative.
