Photomontage Showing Different Means of Transport for Heinz Company Products, April 12, 1909
Photographs of the H.J. Heinz factory -- including buildings, employees, and the manufacturing process -- were often taken and then modified for advertising and publications. This advertising layout features several modified photographs of various shipping methods for Heinz products. The arrangement of these photos, which was featured in the catalog, "Home of the 57 Varieties," is a visual representation of the shipping process.
