1940233241940. Dictaphone Corporation factory photographs documenting women and men manufacturing dictating machines in Bridgeport Connecticut circa 1940s showcasing the postwar expansion of women's employment inside a growing communications technology industry. The group centers on Dictaphone's Bridgeport plant at 335 Howard Avenue where workers appear at long rows of benches with recording and transcription equipment tool drawers lamps wiring and partly assembled machines placing this archive within the larger World War II and postwar reorganization of American factory labor. Several photographs give women a central place within that system not as incidental figures but as seated operators bench workers and posed employees inside the production rooms themselves grounding the archive in the history of women's industrial employment as office technology manufacturing expanded beyond clerical use into large scale commercial production.<br /> <br /> Archive of 21 pieces including 20 black and white and one red photographs ranging from 2" x 2" to 5" x 7" and original envelope. Bridgeport Connecticut circa 1940s. One original company envelope is printed "DICTAPHONE CORPORATION / 335 HOWARD AVENUE / BRIDGEPORT CONN." fixing the factory location. Interior views show crowded production rooms under fluorescent strip lighting with dozens of workers seated at benches operating or assembling dictating machines and related components; in the largest image male workers fill a deep factory floor while several men in the foreground lean into handsets or testing devices at stations packed with equipment. One view shows a male worker alone at a bench in a long machine lined room with belts tools and suspended mechanisms overhead; several smaller prints show women seated at desks or worktables women and men posed together on the shop floor and mixed groups of workers assembled outdoors or around demonstration tables with supervisors and visiting men in suits. The images repeatedly emphasize rows of benches machine bodies cords lamps and standardized work positions while the envelope and repeated factory interiors tie the lot to Dictaphone's manufacturing operation rather than to sales or office promotion alone.<br /> <br /> During World War II and the immediate postwar years firms producing office equipment occupied an important place in the broader American communications and business machine economy supplying devices that organized dictation transcription record keeping and administrative workflow for corporations law offices and government users. This archive makes that industrial system visible at the level of labor showing how the growth of business technology relied on factory discipline gendered employment patterns and the integration of women into production space during a period when wartime labor demand altered who worked at the bench and who appeared in the industrial workforce. Light edge wear envelope toned. Overall very good condition. A concentrated visual record of 1940s office machine manufacturing placing women's industrial labor inside the production history of one of the leading American dictation companies. unknown

He used the sodium obtained by his method for the preparation of such elements as silicon boron and titanium.
