Employees of International Harvester's Deering Works take a break from a volleyball match outside the factory. The match pitted workers from the twine mill against those from the main office.

In 1902 it became International Harvester's Deering Works. The factory was located at Fullerton and Clybourn Avenues and closed in 1933.
