VISUAL DESCRIPTION
This is a vintage advertisement for Murad capstan lathes, featuring an illustration of three women operating the machinery. The ad emphasizes that these machines are designed for easy operation and capable of maintaining high rates of production with minimal effort. It showcases Murad's 3" high-speed capstans, which can handle bar work up to 2 inches in diameter and chucking work up to 11. 5 inches in diameter. The company, Murad Machine Tool Co. Ltd. , is located in Watford Herts, as indicated by the contact information at the bottom right corner. The image conveys a mid-20th-century industrial setting where female workers were becoming more common on factory floors during and after World War II due to labor shortages caused by men serving in the military.
