Description: A fine labor image with strong details and contrast (note the play of reflections over the sheet of tin). 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 facilities the company documented in this project are no longer in existence. Good condition. Full documentation on verso. 1
