Image taken through Lawson Studios of Chicago, Ill. International Harvester Company employees sometimes stamped photographs with the word 'kill.' The stamp indicated that they considered an image to be obsolete and wanted the negative destroyed. This would prevent someone from accidentally using an outdated photograph in an advertisement or other company publication. For a small fee WHS staff can remove the word from the image during the reproduction process. |
