DescriptionThis image depicts an unidentified male employee in the maintenance room in the Hilton Hotel at Second Street and Copper Avenue in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The man is working on what appears to be oil bearings on a vehicle's axel with a ratchet tool near the right side of the frame. A large board can be seen on the left side of the frame. On the board are five large coils of wire, cables, and tubing hanging from nails nailed into the board. Wooden tables, benches, and tools can be seen in the background behind the worker. The man is wearing oil-stained clothing.On View
