Records of the Tennessee Valley Authority. 1918 - 2000. Lewis Hine Photographs for the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA). 1933 - 1933. quot;D. W. Jones, Route #5, Kingsport, Tennessee. Mr. Jones is shown here gilding, or laying gold, at the Kingsport Press. This is a most delicate and exacting operation, requiring a very skillful operator, as great care must be exercised in handling and placing the thin sheets of gold to prevent excessive spoilage and waste. Jones lives five miles from the plant on a farm of his own. He is a master craftsman, trained entirely by Kingsport Press, Inc. He has had from 7 to 10 years' experience.quot;
