A picture of the Linotype Factory in Brooklyn, New York, USA. I would guess (looking at the vehicles) it dates from some time between the turn of the 20th Century and World War One. The small print at the bottom proclaims it to be “The Largest Composing Machine Factory in the World.” I think it may have been produced as a postcard.
