Scope and content
A large glass window is carefully being put into its opening by two employees of Briggs Manufacturing Co. at 3:30 p.m. on March 29, 1954. Briggs Manufacturing specialized in prefabricated buildings; a series of photographs were commissioned to be taken during the course of one day, March 29, to show the speed in which a prefabricated home could be built. The time the picture was taken was then noted by way of a drawn clock in the left corner of each photo.
