The Benjamin Electric Lighting Company
Some nice rare images inside the pdf below illustrating the process of manufacturing enamel shades photographed at the Benjamin factory in London & Birmingham.
I especially like the shots inside the Benjamin 'Lab' on page-13. Like a cross between the film 'The Fly' and 'Willie Wonker & the Chocolate Factory'. Great.
