Information

Date

1930 to 1935

Description

An addition to the old fort in Las Vegas, Nevada. The addition on the right was probably added about the end of 1930 or early 1931. It served primarily as a curing room. There were several inches of sand on the floor in which concrete cylinders were buried under different temperatures for periods of 28 days or so. My [Henry Wieking] ford is in the foreground. Mr. O.G. Patch's car in rear where he lived. Cement mixer in front which we used exclusively to mix all of our test batches.
