those tressels on the right look suspiciously like the ones we still used in the late 90's
I think this was the electrical foreman obidiah bromley (oby)
Yes Gary, It certainly is Obidiah. He was in the process off installing the firstpower press at N.Counties (Circa1960)
I Norman nice to here you are fit and well would love to get in touch for a chat. Huck Man.
I remember this old press turning out window pans by the dozen and also those roof trusses above where the northern counties traditional wedding ceremony was performed... A chamber pot was tied with wire etc to the roof truss & sometimes covered with grease. the (victim)who was about to get married had to climb an extention ladder with a hack saw and remove the pot whilst the whole workforce banged hammers etc. health and safety wasn,t invented yet.
