Scope and content
Precision Machine Works, founded by Edward Gazecki and Edwin Hofstead in 1924, was located at 2102 A St., next to Graybar Electric. Edward Gazecki was still listed as president in the 1958 City Directory, however, William J. Gazecki was the vice-president and may have been in charge of the plant. Precision Machine Works specialized in automatic machinery, both in fabrication and welding. There was also an aircraft division adjacent to the main building. External view of the industrial facility was taken on an overcast day in April, 1958, for use in a brochure.
