Description
Colorized photo from 1912
Original Title: Inspecting cartridge cases
Location: Washington DC
This company makes 3" shells for guns in WW1. This dept seems to be inspecting these things, for something. Each one should be of the best quality so they don't blow up the wrong side.
They didn't have a lot of light to work from, sunlight is preferred, that's why most everyone is on that side of the room. But there is also a combination of gas lights and electricity.
