View of cranes and power shovels demolishing buildings to prepare for building main assembly plant for Packard Rolls-Royce Merlin XX engines. Label on back: "Without delay, powered shovels and wrecking cranes began the demolition of obsolete buildings for the foundations of the main assembly plant for Packard Rolls-Royce. There was ironic historical repetition in the demolition of these old structures. They were the remnants of the factories of World War One where Packard built 6,000 Liberty motors for the fighting aircraft of the United States, Great Britain and her Allies."
