Caption:
A Wheelabrator machine at Crown Cork and Seal Company, Baltimore, Maryland in April 1953. Original caption: “Wheelabrator – A machine to remove scale and rust from castings and forging. The ventilating ducts and storage hopper, where the steel shot is held, illustrates an enclosed process to protect the worker.” The sign on the machine next to the lower ductwork and can on floor reads, “Do not deposit trash in this can". The photograph was probably made as part of a study by the U.S. Public Health Service, Industrial Hygiene Division.
