E.I. du Pont de Nemours & Company · 1925 · E.I. du Pont de Nemours · 13 pictures

A 1925 trade booklet from E.I. du Pont de Nemours & Company, a American chemical firm, explaining clear and colored finishes, their uses, application, colors and mixing for paint and lacquer users. The four photographs show the company's factory: a large drum-shaped vessel with a worker, rows of mixing tanks with overhead agitators, a tall cylindrical unit, and a multi-level plant gantry with pipes and railings, rendered in a sepia halftone that a designer could use for industrial, early twentieth-century manufacturing themes.
