Ford Motor Company. Engineering Photographic Dept.

Henry Ford maintained his office in the Dearborn Engineering Laboratory rather than at the Rouge River Plant. Proximity to Engineering Photographic Department photographers was a key factor in the development of a separate run of photographs that primarily, although not exclusively, documents Henry's personal activities. The series was begun in 1929, the same year the Edison Institute and Greenfield, an early American village (now The Henry Ford) were dedicated, and largely reflects Henry's antiquarian interests.
