Power House Mechanic

I love this image, by Lewis Hine — "Power house mechanic working on steam pump," 1920. It looks like an image from a WWI propaganda poster.

These days when we think of "Mechanic" most will think of an "Auto Mechanic", but the archaic meaning is: "a manual laborer or artisan". So basically if you work with your hands, you're a mechanic.
