318949.1171 Newly organized pine storage bins with tags in front of the bays. Sloped ceiling, again. Gilbreth Day blackboard. In bays: brown-paper wrapped supplies, which look like paper. Another image, elsewhere, shows clearly German signs--this must be in Germany--the beginning of the Auer job?

318949.1210, A man sits on the top tier of a two-tiered seat, made out of white-painted metal parts with cushions, at a drafting board which is in a complete horizontal position. In the companion image (see 99-30301), he has bumped down to the lower seated position, and the drafting table is at an angle, as is typical for drafting work.

318949.1173 Cluttered storage space with tall high windows in the back. Storage bays have stuff in them--hard to tell. Small paper packages. In the image is a number, 346, which conflicts with the neg. number penned on. Same suspended lamps that I saw over the office workers next to tall windows.

318949.1238 This is one of three images (318949.1238-1240) which show a woman working at an ergonomically-correct work station in a motion laboratory. The work has something to do with textiles, as the materials in the boxes look like spindles; one can also see a loom off stage. The right hand box, from where one would pick up materials is tilted at an angle. The chair has little foot rests built onto it.

318949.1213 This is the sliding white seat which looks like a tractor seat. Metal with holes in the back part of the seat, which is on rollers on a supporting structure. This supporting structure can also move, and when in the closed position, the worker is seated before a big roll of paper, and can slide easily from left to right. This image shows the mechanism in a closed position, as if the worker was at his/her post. See also 99-30302 and 99-30304.

This supporting structure can also move, and when in the closed position, the worker is seated before a big roll of paper, and can slide easily from left to right. This image shows the whole mechanism open, ready for the worker to get on the seat and have it be moved to the work-ready position in front of the paper roll.

318949.1191 Two young men in oxfords, vests, and ties look at the camera behind a counter. Behind them is a huge board used to keep track of factory orders. A calendar from Starcweather and Shipley Insurance (June 1914) is behind them. To their right is a bank of wooden file drawers with small pull-out file trays. This looks like the same white interior with high windows and suspended lamps I have seen in the storage related images. Either NE Butt or Hermann-Aukam, I imagine. The calendar I THINK says Providence, RI.

318949.1169 Newly-reorganized pine storage bins, with tags. Image shows two bins: one is vertically oriented of two bays across and 4 high (or more); the other is three high and 4 across. As in another image, there is a small white sign with black lettering that says 'MSPBC G'. Inside of one of the bins are a series of book-like things that say 'Leitz' on the spine. The ceiling is sloped, as if this is an attic space. Another image, elsewhere, shows clearly German signs--this must be in Germany--the beginning of the Auer job?

318949.1219 A close-up of a woman's legs underneath a work table. She has black boots and a white skirt; her left foot is on a piece of wood on the floor, and her right foot is resting on a wooden bar, built as a (somewhat crude)footrest. Next to her foot is a metal grill, perhaps a pedal for perating machinery. There is a Gilbreth blackboard on which is written '641-5.' She seems to be sitting on a stool or chair made out of round legs and stiles, with a cane seat.

318949.1184 There are a number of these chronocyclegraph studies of locomotion (at least 9), some of which are numbered 1700.152 (etc.) and some of which are numbered in the 18000 series, such as 18198. FBG took these as part of his shoe-fitting investigations in the military motion study laboratory. It appears lights were attached to each foot, the belt, and the head; some of the wavy images suggest (intentionally) erratic walking.
