Early DeWalt History & Machines
This is a fascinating collection of early-days DeWalt imagery, found online in the collections of Lancaster History. This album is a subset of everything DeWalt-related found over there — the images that caught my eye for one reason or another. The range and diversity of their machines and operation is, to this day, quite incredible.
Unfortunately a large portion of the raw/original photos were extremely washed-out or otherwise sub-par, so I’ve tweaked the levels/contrast on every photo here. Lastly, anything with any color… that’s just something I do when I feel any affection for an old black & white. :) — David
