Thanks for posting these! Very cool to see into the past like that. These people may have assembled something we own.

You know, that doesn't look like a large production area - wonder if it's some sort of prototyping lab?

Yeah, we've had a few "lost pics" incidents since this thread was originally started!

Kinda funny to think... we've been around for so long... over a decade now. I tend to forget that. I remember joining this group shortly after it got started. At that time, there was about 200 members total I think.

Did the plant on Dickens & Austin have rail loading docks at the back in the 1950s?

Other Zenith plants:
5800 Dickens, 4245 N Knox Av, 1500 N Kostner Ave, 912 W Washington Blvd, 343 Michigan (sales)

I looked at these, one is now an ALDI how uninspiring.

Almost like Milwaukee!
Look at all the foolishness going on in the last few weeks or months.
It's really sad what happened to these fine old cities.

I am in tears over the US Government's lack of protection against TV dumping back in the day. That practice sealed the fate of our once proud TV industry. I am now seeing the same happen to our appliance industry. LG and Samsung is hurting the appliance industry and Whirlpool is a major employer in the county adjacent to the one I live in.

The American auto industry isn't too far behind, I am surprised they have hung on this long.
