Colorized photo from 1900
Original Title: Glazier stove Company, Machine room
Location: 300 N. Main Street, Chelsea MI
This is the Glazier stove company, they built a variety of stoves. During that time, they made kitchen and heating stoves, all very ornate. The shop has modern tools, complete with a speed control. Though I'm not sure how that works since they do have belt changers as well.
However it seems at that time, it went out of business in 1907, due to bankruptcy. As the story goes, Mr Glazier had some questionable financial dealings, and he was later on convicted on three count of embezzlement in 1908. While its not mentioned, that guy in the middle, trying to look like he's doing something, is probably the owner.
