2	Title:	General Motors Corporation, Fisher Body Division, Plant No. 1 Photographs
	Creator:	General Motors Corporation, Fisher Body Division, Plant No. 1
	Dates:	1926-1983
	Abstract:	Plant No. 1 of the Fisher Body Division of the General Motors Corporation opened in Cleveland, Ohio, in 1921 as part of the Fisher Body Company. Fisher produced automobile bodies, and in 1926 became part of the General Motors Corporation. During World War II the plant produced tank and gun parts and engine parts for airplanes, wartime employment totalling 14,000, including a large number of women. After the war the plant produced large stamping dies and upholstery and trim sets rather than auto bodies. General Motors closed the plant in 1983. The plant was involved in several bitter strikes during the 1930s, including the 1936-1937 sit-down strike to gain union recognition by GM, which began at the plant. The plant was also known as the Coit Road Plant. The collection consists of individual and group portraits of plant managers and supervisors, award dinners and presentations, open houses, visits of General Motors officials and politicians, and World War II-related photographs of award ceremonies, portraits of employees who died in action, and a postwar visit by General Douglas MacArthur. Views include aerial and exterior photographs of the plant and photographs of production and facilities.
