Office of H.O. Company, 686 Main Street, Hartford.
Men and women sit at desks and tables in an office interior. Most work at typewriters. A woman at the left operates a duplicating machine, possibly a mimeograph machine. A woman in the background talks on the telephone. A boy in the right background wears a uniform including a cap that reads: "Postal Telegraph." A wire file basket, a cutout figure inscribed "Force," papers and tablets are on the desks. File drawers are in a cabinet at the right. Posters, framed pictures and several calendars dated 1909 hang on the walls. A sign stenciled on a glass door panel reads: " John J. Campbell / Manager / and / General Sales Agent / H.O. / Algrane Feeds." A sign over a door reads: "Â… Offices." Light fixtures appear to be gaslights converted to electricity. Letterpress text above image: "General Sales Agent for / The H.O. Company's Algrane Feed."
