My father listed his occupation from 1934-1937 as a press operator, forming steel wheel components; he lived on the near west side and later worked for Firestone at Vernor and Trumbell.
Anyone know of companies of that era engaged in that line of manufacturing at that time? Firestone Steel Products had a location in Akron about that time, later in Wyandotte. Did Kelsey Hayes or Budd have plants in Detroit in the 30s?
