One of the machine shops at Thomas Edison's West Orange, NJ factory, looking pretty much as it did back in the day. Belt-drive system was powered by a single electric motor nearly the size of a 55gal drum. This was the late 1800s...long before OSHA came on the scene. The noise level in here must've been off the charts.
