Springfield Machine Shop

Springfield Machine Shop
Brought forward for the Vintage Photos Theme Park theme of "machines".
Taken through the windows of a machine shop in Springfield, Vermont - probably J&L.
This was found in the collection of my husband's grandfather who worked here as an engineer and was probably taken in the 1940s.
Springfield was known for precision tool making and made aircraft parts during and after WW2.
This is a large photo printed on cardboard and my husband believes it was taken by a professional photographer who had a shop in Springfield.

Thanks, Angelica. I like that, too. I also like that some windows are clear and some frosted - an interesting patchwork type of photo.

Nice! Like Angelica, I feel like I'm peeking in the window to see what's going on in there!

My Great Grand father HM Dressel no doubt took this picture, he was the only proffesional photographer in the area with a shop and my Grandmother Louise Davis worked there till he closed...My Father Kenneth E. Davis has all the info, he grew up in Springfield and his father Hugh Davis worked most of his life in the Jones& Lamson machine shop, It is amazing to see old pictures of this, My father does Geneology and we have tons of old info on Springfield, I am making a road trip from Dover with my wife in August to see all my relatives and visit the cemetary where my grand parents are buried...
Thanks for the picture and Your Husbands grandfather probably knew my Grandfather Hugh Davis...:)
