North Country At Work

A North Country Public Radio Project

Barrel factory work crew in Hammond

Workmen in front of a Hammond workshop, possibly a stavery (barrel factory). The signs posted saying “positively no smoking” were there because it would have been a fire hazard around wood shavings. Circa 1900 – 1910. Hammond, NY.
