Men at the assembly bench, Leitz works, 1937

Down a long bench, men in white coats over collars and ties sit shoulder to shoulder under angled lamps, racks of small round parts and trays of screws before them; a worker with a wristwatch lifts a camera body and fits a part with his fingertips. The coats and ties mark these men as the aristocracy of the works: skilled instrument makers who had served a long apprenticeship with the firm.
