amazing mixture of automation and man inserts rivets, etc. also shows what drudgery assembly line work must have been. Fascinating 1936 footage of car assembly line. [VIDEO]

 

That was really cool. I was enthralled for the entire video....not sure if that is good or bad. I guess it depends on who you tell that to.

 

Maybe drugery but in 1936 those guys were glad of it .

 

Very cool. I would like to see it in color.

 

I have seen it before and a couple of others ,never get tired of it. Those guys were very lucky for the times back then. Clean out of the weather work area, much better than down deep in a dark dirty coal mine . There were not many good paying jobs back then.
Watching the assembly was like watching ballet dancers only better.
