Steel mill lit by Bessemer converter blowing at night  Save
Description: This photograph depicts the exterior of a mill building, light at night by a flame blowing through a Bessemer converter. Bessemer converters release oxygen gas through molten iron, which reacts with carbon and and other impurities to increase the quality of the steel, as well as producing a large flame. This photograph belongs to the Youngstown Sheet and Tube Audiovisual Archives, so its subject is likely located at a Youngstown plant. View on Ohio Memory.

F. & R. Lazarus Company receiving room  Save
Description: Employees at work in The F. & R. Lazarus Company receiving room, ca. 1930. Between 1851 and 1965, the F & R Lazarus Company retail store dominated the trade and physical landscape of Columbus. The company rose from its early years as a men's clothier in a 20 x 40 foot room downtown, to its position by 1965 as a member of the largest department store chain, Federated Department Stores. Lazarus' growth reflects that of the capital city; from small beginnings through a "golden age" of downtown development, and eventually branching out into the surrounding countryside. In 2003, the Lazarus Company was incorporated with Macy's, a member of the Federated Department stores, and is no longer in existence. View on Ohio Memory.

Ervin Griffin photograph  Save
Description: This photograph from the Ohio Penitentiary in Columbus is of 19-year-old Ervin Griffin of Franklin County, Ohio. His formal attire suggests that the photograph was taken during his trial or sentencing. Griffin was convicted of murdering railroad engineer William Conkle, and was the 237th individual to be executed via the electric chair in Ohio. The caption at the bottom reads: "No. 237, Ervin Griffin of Franklin County, Legally Electrocuted September 15th, 1943, for the Murder of William Conkle." In 1885 the Ohio Penitentiary in Columbus, Ohio, became the location for all executions, which previously took place in the various county seats. In 1896 the Ohio General Assembly mandated that electrocution replace hanging as the form of capital punishment. The Ohio Penitentiary regularly offered tours as well as souvenir photographs and postcards of the building and prisoners on death row. A total of 315 prisoners, both men and women, were executed in the electric chair known as “Old Sparky” between 1897 and 1963. View on Ohio Memory.
