Description
Photograph of a worker applying a tool to a clay-like material, ca.1930. At right is a worker facing left and seen from the side holding a tool that appears to be shaping a clay-like material into the shape of upside-down bowls, which are visible across the top of his work station. The worker is wearing overalls, a collared button-down shirt, and a headband. Sheets, a towel, and wooden planks are visible in the background, and two lightbulbs decend from a low wooden ceiling.
