Standard Pattern Works, York, Pennsylvania

Standard Pattern Works, York, Pennsylvania
Men pose in their work areas at the Standard Pattern Works in York, Pennsylvania, sometime early in the twentieth century.

As Wikipedia explains, "In casting, a pattern is a replica of the object to be cast, used to prepare the cavity into which molten material will be poured during the casting process.... The making of patterns, called patternmaking..., is a skilled trade that is related to the trades of tool and die making and moldmaking, but also often incorporates elements of fine woodworking."
