Pic in dropbox

While searching old photos after my mothers death, I came across this one. There is no label, but I suspect it is the tool room in the old Victor Adding Machine plant back in 1947. I think the guy on the lathe all the way to the left is my father.

Any way I thought guys would get a kick out of the row of Hardinges and the couple of jigbores

Thanks. Vamco.jpg was the original hi-res scan, vamco1.jpg was the one I shrunk for the dropbox. Typed in the wrong name when I wrote the message.

Must be brain damage.

It's the number one, not the letter "L" at the end.

Sorry

I always found it most accurate to go to the site in question and then copy the "Address" at which you found it, into the text of your message. As below, I have no idea whether it is an l (L)or a 1 (one) and I don't care but I do know that it's right.
