Metal Collected for Scrap Drive
Two men stand outdoors by a pile of scrap metal intended for donation to the war effort at the Chapman and Follmer International Harvester dealership. A road, church, and farm buildings are in the background. The original caption reads: "Memory Jogger - Chapman and Follmer (E.F. Follmer, right), Avilla, Missouri, Springfield, Missouri, territory, pending disposition of this great pile of scrap, is using it as a daily reminder to all passers-by that scrap still at home can do the war effort no good until it gets to market and to the steel mills. Assistant Manager L.J. De Mars, Springfield, Missouri, looks over the tonnage record of the firm and finds it good." |
