EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in American history, showcasing the National Cash Register workers of 1902. The image showcases a group of women diligently working with typewriters at the National Cash Register (NCR) headquarters in Dayton, Ohio. Established in 1884, NCR was a pioneering cash register company that later ventured into computing technology. Photographed by William Henry Jackson, an eminent American photographer from the late 19th to early 20th century, this snapshot provides us with a glimpse into the world of female office workers during this era. These skilled typists are seen immersed in their work within an open-plan office setting. The photograph not only highlights the technological advancements of its time but also sheds light on gender roles and opportunities for women in the workforce. It serves as a testament to their contribution to industrial progress and challenges traditional notions about women's capabilities. As we delve into this historical image, we witness these determined Caucasian women embodying professionalism and dedication while operating these mechanical marvels known as typewriters. Their presence signifies both societal shifts and strides made towards equality. Preserved by the Library of Congress/Science Photo Library, this remarkable piece offers valuable insights into engineering achievements, human ingenuity, and industrial development during America's early 20th century.
