Mystery Photos

Dr Leland Whitson bought the photographs on these pages on Ebay. The seller was unable to supply any details about them.

Can you shed any light on the pictures? If you have any idea when or where the pictures may have been taken please get in touch and let us know.

Operating a Linotype
Operating a Linotype in a very small workshop. The photographer appears to be stood outside the door.

A row of platen machines with some rather young looking operators. I’ve tried taking a closer look at what appears to be a map hanging on the wall to no avail.
Single magazine Linotypes
A row of single-magazine Linotypes in quite a large workshop.
A row of Linotypes
The same row of Linotypes photgraphed from the other end.
