The photographs document the exterior and the interior of the complex after production had ceased and the machinery had been removed. Several of the photographs were taken by Peter MacCallum in 1982 and 1985.Thirty four of the images (items 71-104) are duplicate, large-format, mounted photographs, produced by Peter MacCallum for his 1988 exhibition at Mercer Union Gallery, titled "Industrial Zone."
