Transcription
This is a photographic negative produced by photographer Ian Beesley.
A label on the back of the folder reads 'DePuy, Thackray. Beeston. Leeds. 12th August 2011, possibly referring to the DePuy Sythes R&D centre in Beeston.
This was part of a project called 'Thackray Remembered' (Thackray 2011) which was commissioned by the Thackray Medical Museum to document the closure of a Thackray factory which manufactured hip and knee replacements. It was taken over by the American company who moved production to China.
The image shows a man in a DePuy uniform and safety glasses pushed onto the top of his head. He is sat with a 'Dell' computer on a desk next to him. Behind him is a machine labelled 'Mitutoyo. Coordinate Measuring Machine. Crysta'.
