I enjoyed looking through the April 2004 issue of Reminisce Extra.
It's a standard-size magazine; about the dimensions of TIME.

On the inside cover is a 2-page spread on the 1936 apprenticeship
program of Allis-Chambers company in West Allis, Wisconsin. A large,
very clear picture is included that shows 32 young men arranged by
drafting tables on which are drafting instruments and slide rules.

Adolph Werner, the one who submitted the picture, writes:

"After 3 years, we ended up as journeyman draftsmen making $120 a
month. We all dressed pretty muhc alike, with ties and long-sleeved
shirts. And there was no air-conditioning. ... We studied logarithms,
calculus, and the drawings and inking sent in from the engineering
department. We used slide rules too."

The article continues "For those whose number-crunching history goes
back only to electronic calculators, slide rules are manually
operated."

Well folks, it's a great picture, very clear and large. I'm keeping it!
