A grouping of eight antique and vintage occupational photographs, seven board-mounted and one unmounted. Five of the board-mounted photographs bear the printed imprint "The Clay-Worker, Indianapolis, Ind." on embossed white mounts and depict scenes associated with the publication, including a group of five men and women posed on the steps of a brick building, a group of seven men and women with a dog on the steps of a similar brick building, an office interior with five men seated among rolltop desks and a door marked "General Manager," two men in an office with a standing desk and swivel chair, and a group of six men and women seated around a dining table. An additional board-mounted photograph on a dark gray embossed mount shows two seated workers in overalls and work shirts. A board-mounted photograph on a cream-colored mount depicts the storefront of G. Cammett, with three men in aprons standing before large arched display windows with draped curtains. The unmounted photograph shows a large group of approximately 45 bakery workers in white uniforms and caps posed in four rows in front of a loading dock, with a sign reading "Ask for Town Talk Bread, Rich in Pure Milk" displayed in the front row. The photographs and mounts exhibit varying degrees of toning, foxing, soiling, creasing, and edge wear throughout.

The listed dimensions are of the largest photo in the grouping.
