I have another interior photo from the early sixties, but it’s not wide enough to help with the lighting question. </div><div><br></div><div>That second photo is a crop from a photo that was <i>probably</i> taken for an N&W magazine article (If that speculation is correct, the I haven’t found the issue, or it wasn’t used) that I found while visiting the Pickaway County Historical Society. Side note: the two operators were husband and wife. There are more lamps than I remembered when replying this morning. </div><div><br></div><div>Given that photo isn’t watermarked, please consider limiting sharing. </div><div><br></div><div>@Bill D, I went back to the link in Mr Scheer’s original email and also couldn’t find the listing.
