Guards for the synthetic rubber plant built on old Wertz Field in Charleston, West Virginia. The factory required so many guards because of it's high importance to the nation during war time. Rubber was one of the most important commodities during the war and because most of our supplies of it had been cut off we had to build our own synthetic rubber plants, which needed lots of protection.

Rock Lake Pool in South Charleston, West Virginia was built from an old rock quarry which was in operation in the 1930's. The pool was opened up by the Wilan family in 1942 and it remained in operation until 1985. The pool was surrounded by high natural rock walls, which provided perfect opportunities for high dives and swings. It also included a 50 foot slide, water trampoline, fountain, and trapeze. It closed down due to competing pools in the area which offered cheaper prices.
