Item Information

Title:
In the jaws of death : Rolling bars for shells
Description:
"From these jagged teeth the fiery serpent snorts, shrieking and squirming, vomiting sparks - it was an ingot just before - only to be drawn back again and again, longer and thinner, cast out in heat and noise infernal. Then it crawls away to cool in long bars, or be cut into ingots by the guillotine." Joseph Pennell.
