Scarce late 1920s unused real-photo postcard of the interior of the rolling mill at the Rouge steel plant of the Ford Motor Company in Dearborn, Michigan! From 1917 to 1925, Henry Ford built this revolutionary new "vertically integrated" manufacturing plant, which turned raw materials into complete automobiles at one location; this approach became a widely adopted manufacturing model. In the mid-1930s, when the Rouge was at its peak, it employed 100,000 people. Published by the Garraway Co. of Rutherford, NJ. Sharply focused and finely detailed, great clarity in this image, which is a desirable Wayne County or automobilia collectible in excellent condition!
