Title
Demonstrating Technique at Holeproof Hosiery
Description
A photo of two men working at Holeproof Hosiery. One is demonstrating the technique for removing a freshly steamed and pressed stocking off hot metal form. This was a very specific manoeuvre that workers had to learn both to keep the integrity of the sock but also to protect themselves from injury.
