Machine Shop Banner Lady with Rare Fire Engine Pumper on Dress / Tama Iowa famous but basically disappear when theWoman holding an open fan and advertising sign for Kenyon & Day Machine Shop, Tama, Iowa. Looks like an old fire pumper on her dress which would be rare in my experience. Maybe the shop built parts, did repairs on it. Also notice she isn't actually holding the banner, it's being held up by a photographer's posing stand, something else I don't recall seeing very often. Identified on the back in pencil: "May Porter Smith, died 1913". 6. 5" x 4. 25"
