Interior of the American Sheet and Tin Mill factory in Morgantown--note the Extra rolls kept on hand to replace the ones constantly being fed into the hot mills.
WVRHC note: 'This picture shows the spare rolls ready to take the place of those constantly in use in the hot mills. This mill uses 50 or 60 of them and they are relieved from duty once a week and sent to a roll turner who redresses each and again makes it ready for duty in some one of the many hot mills where it does another dollars work. One on the extreme right is the barshear which easily cuts the cold steel shown in the upper part of this picture and allows the pieces 15 to 30 inches (in length) to fall at it's side ready for the furnace where they are heated before bringing them into the hot mills. In the lower center the doubling shears are shown.'
