Old Hickory Powder Plant Box Factory

Photograph of two women from the Old Hickory Powder Plant Box Factory near Nashville, Tennessee. They are dressed in their work uniforms, called "womanalls." One of the women is seated on a box, presumably made at the factory. In an article published in the Old Hickory News, the women's foreman describes the women as "doing a man's work at a man's pay and doing it better than a man can do." - Before Rosie the Riveter
