EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken around 1902, offers a glimpse into the Polishing Department of the National Cash Register (NCR) Company in Dayton, Ohio, USA. The image, created by an unknown photographer, showcases a group of men diligently working on various machines, polishing the intricate components of cash registers. The room is filled with the hum of industry and the scent of metal and polish. The National Cash Register Company, founded in Dayton in 1884 by John H. Patterson, was a pioneer in the manufacturing of mechanical cash registers. By the early 1900s, the company had grown into a significant industrial powerhouse, employing hundreds of workers in various departments. The Polishing Department was a crucial part of the production process, ensuring the high-quality finish of each cash register before it was shipped out to retailers. The photograph captures the dedication and focus of the male workforce, dressed in collared shirts and aprons, as they meticulously attend to their tasks. The large windows let in natural light, while the rows of polishing machines and workbenches fill the room. The scene is a testament to the hard work and craftsmanship that went into producing these essential business tools during the early 20th century. This photograph, a dry plate negative glass 8 x 10 in, is a valuable piece of American industrial heritage, offering a window into the past and the social class of factory workers during this era. It is part of the vast collection of Heritage Images, held at the Library of Congress, and serves as a reminder of the rich history of manufacturing in the United States.
