Impressive pictures!
With the number of heads facing the camera this event must have been talk
of the day :-)

I'm trying to identify some of the tools on the bench. Almost every
station has what looks like a little clay pot with lid. Could it be
glue?

Some work stations also have a jar with clear liquid and a screw lid
on it. Water?


A lot of work is spent on coil windings (power supply transformers), so I
guess there would be insulating/fixating varnish at hand. The jars with
screw lid could then be solvent to rinse.

One of the pictures shows individual bench lighting. I suppose this
is gas lighting, judging from the distributing pipes?

The "large version" picture shows numerous coil winding equipment, driven
from the floor. This must have been a stunning noisy environment to work
in...
