Cenco 1929 - A Photo Gallery
 
The photos in this gallery are a selection scanned from the 1929 Central Scientific Company Catalog F (Physical Apparatus). I find them interesting not only as a part of Cenco's history, but particularly as example's of industrial laboratory design and conditions in the 1920's. We find these images quaint, but Cenco held them up proudly as indicative of the quality of thier products, their dedication to research and development, and their state-of-the-art facilities.
