Description: Behemoth U.S. Steel was in its heyday when this picture was taken—the company employed 340,000 workers in 1943. Today, the majority of the mills the company documented in this project are no longer in existence. Strong details and good tonal range characterize this long view of blast furnaces and stoves. Good condition. Full documentation on verso. 1
