Fur dyers: bleaching furs with ammonia
![[BLANK]](https://digitalcollections.archives.nysed.gov/media/collectiveaccess/images/5/1/6/10090_ca_object_representations_media_51620_large.jpg)
Two men stand at a worktable along the fall wall bleaching furs with ammonia at Leipzig Fur Dyers, located at 322 E. 48th St., New York City. Each man works with a large brush in his hand. Furs lie folded on various tables in the room. Work in this room is "very irritating to the throat and eyes," and the investigator found no duct in this room to remove the fumes.
