Subject: Good Detail of Incandescent Light Bulb Manufacturing
This film provides good detail of the process and machines involved in the mass manufacture of incandescent light bulbs. It was a long journey from Edison's lab to the events recorded in this film. Here in the U.S. these bulbs have become illegal contraband supplanted by LED lighting. You will be viewing vintage obsolete industrial manufacturing machinery in action. The pace of the musical soundtrack is fitting.
