Description

Photograph of a pressman removing a 24.00-29 24 ply U.S. Royal Con-Trak-Tor off-road tire from a mold in an unidentified factory, [s.d.]. The massive tire is at center and is being lifted up by a crane. The large mold in which the tire was formed can be seen directly beneath the tire. A man is standing near the mold at right and is holding the control to the crane in his hands. The top of the tire mold can be seen in the foreground at left. The wall of the factory is visible in the background and is composed mostly of windows, many of which are open.
