Description
Photograph of an industry scene at the American Latex Products Corporation, ca.1950. "Stafoam" polyurethane is cut into various sizes and thickness as it runs through a machine watched by several workers. A man in a light-colored shirt stands behind the machine at right, with his hands on the device, watching for foam. Another man across him tinkers with the equipment, while a balding man at left weighs a piece of foam on a large scale. Yet another man bends over in the background, peering under the device.
