Description
Photograph of an industry scene at the American Latex Products Corporation, ca.1950. A man in a cap and cover-alls pours natural latex into molds prior to production of "C-Foam" rubber. He holds the nozzle of a latex-dispensing hose in hand, and pours a generous mound into a metal sheet beneath the mold, which hangs from the wall. In the foreground sits the shadow of a portion of another device.
