EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from 1893 takes us back in time to the bustling meatpacking industry of Chicago. In this image, we witness a scene of intense activity at Armour's packing house, one of the leading companies in the field during that era. The photograph showcases women and men diligently weighing and packing mince meat on an assembly line. The atmosphere is filled with determination as these workers play their part in the production process. The interior of the packhouse reveals piles of ground meat ready for packaging, creating a visual representation of the immense scale at which this operation took place. As we delve into this snapshot from history, it becomes evident that both genders were involved in this labor-intensive work. Women and men stand side by side, showcasing their commitment to their craft without any distinction or discrimination. This stereograph captures not only a moment frozen in time but also represents an important turn-of-the-century industry that helped shape Chicago's identity as a hub for innovation and commerce. It serves as a reminder of the hard work put forth by these individuals who dedicated themselves to providing food for countless households across America. Granger Art on Demand has once again brought us an extraordinary piece that allows us to reflect upon our past while appreciating how far we have come since then.
