Throwback Thursday
Innovation is always marching on in the workplace. When this March, 6, 1953, photo was taken, Jane Martin remains seated and “gets her filing done” using the “Corresfile” electric/hydraulic lift and circular file system at the Office and Management Association’s 11th Annual Seminar and Business Show in Chicago, Ill. The electrically operated hydraulic lift raises a person from floor level to five feet alongside a circular file. The circular file has six shelves and each holds the equivalent of three file drawers. The Corresfile was an innovation of the Wassell Organization of Westport, Conn. (AP Photo/Edward Kitch)
