Elevated View of Oscar Mayer Plant
| Elevated view from roof of the Oscar Mayer plant. There is a water tower on the roof with a sign painted on it that reads: "Oscar Mayer." Automobiles are parked in the parking lot, and three men are standing and talking nearby. There is a service flag with a large star and the number "1241" hanging on the brick wall near the roof, and above it at the edge of the roof is a flag on a flagpole with the symbol of an eagle at the base. A banner below the service flag reads: "Our Job is More Meat, It's Fighting Food!" and it includes a caricature of Little Oscar and a soldier running with a rifle. |
