Scope and content
New spray equipment, George R. Marvin Company. The company manufactured fabricated steel products. This view of the spray equipment shows that the spray can be directed downwards and a person can ride on the back to control the flow of liquid. The sprayer was developed to meet the State of Washington, Department of Transportation's, need for asphalt application for roads. The sprayer can also be used in crop spraying or fire prevention. The sprayer, exclusive to Marvin, is being pulled by a pick-up truck in the yard of a large factory. (T.Times, 8/6/1947, p.5)
