A series of pictures showing some parts of the busy Atlas plant at 1819 - 1919 North Pitcher Street, Kalamazoo, Michigan, in the USA. One is struck by the incongruity of a factory that made largely neat, self-contained V-belt drive machine-tools being equipped with a forest of old-fashioned line shafting and flat belts - the expression "today's machine tools are made on yesterday's" being, in this case, perfectly apt. More factory illustrations can be found here.
