Parts Hanging in an Elevator

Image

Two men dressed in work clothes are standing next to what appears to be an elevator. In the elevator there are several implement parts hanging from the ceiling, and there is a sign above that is difficult to read, but mentions something about "risk" and was posted by "I.H.C." The room is lit by two windows with bright sunlight shining in. This photograph may have been taken at International Harvester Osbourne Work in Auburn, New York.
