Halloween Party, 1994

 File — Box: Legal, Box: 2, Folder: 25

This collection is comprised of various photographs related to the General Time Factory in Athens, Georgia. This includes photographs of the factory,employees, and events throughout the latter half of the 20th Century.

The photographs of the factory itself are of the interior as well as the exterior of the factory, including the factory floor and assembly, and the offices in the building as well. There are a number of personnel photographs in this collection, most of them not dated but seem to date from the 1970s through the 1990s. These photographs are primarily individual portraits of various employees, or those assumed to be employees. The majority of the individuals in these photographs are unidentified.

The majority of the photographs, however, are of various events hosted by or for the employees of the Athens, GA factory from the 1950s/1960s through to circa 2000 before the plant closed in 2001. These events include retirement parties, awards banquets, picnics, employee appreciation days, halloween parties, as well as the 10th anniversary celebration of the opening of the Athens factory from the 1960s. Many of these events have been identified through context clues in the photographs, as there is little written documentation about these photographs. Some of them have not been identified, while others may only be identified by the first name of the retiree as seen on a banner within one of the photographs of the event.
