Scope and content
ca. 1959. Harmon Manufacturing Co. of Tacoma, in business here since 1909, built classroom furniture as well as that for the home. The company was located at 1938 Pacific Ave.This studio setup is of portable lab equipment, the answer for a school that is pressed for space. The teacher model illustrates chemical formulas on a rolling blackboard, while she rests a glass of soda on the ledge at the top. The blackboard also appears to slide open, to access storage space inside. Beside her is a portable lab table with a faucet and small sink and bunsen burner on top. There is plenty of storage space inside the cabinet for chemicals.
