Description

This interview is one of a series conducted with former employees of the Huntington Owens-Illinois, Inc. glass bottle factory. This is a fairly typical interview in this series in terms of the topics covered: Mr. Crum's work history, his first impressions of the Huntington Owens plant, the seniority system at the plant, the Glass Bottle Blower's union (the largest union at Owens), and the changes which Mr. Crum saw occur during his career at Owens. Most of the interview consists of Mr. Crum's description of the physical process of glass production.
