Title
English: Puget Sound Sheet Metal Works building on Western Avenue, Seattle, circa 1903
Description
English:

Known today as PSF Industries, Inc., and PSF Mechanical, Inc., Puget Sound Sheet Metal Works Company was founded in 1900 by Edward Hite, Robert S. Raven, and Joseph W. Callahan and incorporated in 1902 as Puget Sound Sheet Metal Works, Inc. (PSSMW) by Raven, Hite, and David Bowen. PSSMW began as a sheet metal and roofing company, but over the course of its history the company was involved a wide variety of projects, including the manufacture of stainless steel brewing equipment beginning in the 1930s and special train cars to transport 747 parts. During World War I and World War II, the company produced war-related materials such as lifeboats and aircraft parts. This image shows the company's first location at 1328 Western Avenue.

This image is part of an album containing 71 photographs concerning PSSMW's history.
