vacuum

Love the dress...... tiny waist....tight bodice......nice length to the dress......heels...... Really quite ........appealing don't you think.......????

I think the two men at left are in prison garb, and the man at right is in guard's or warder's uniform.

When looking at the associated photograph www.flickr.com/photos/nypl/3109284623/in/set-721576109675...

I wondered why they were flicking the dust onto the books carefully laid on the ground, but now I see that they are using a type of vacuum device with a brush head.

We can see the hose attached to the head, and extending behind the men at right.

Hi, this photo has been mentioned in a discussion thread in the Flickr Commons group, and we'd love to have this added to the group pool!

I seldom see dust in libraries. Is that mainly because of ventilation systems? Or do they still literally dust the shelves?

This image has been used in Rob Ketcherside's indicommons.org 'Across the Commons' post Clean Up Yer Mess. (When I worked in libraries, we read the shelves, but I don't think we every dusted them.)

Hi, I'm an admin for a group called Exergy, and we'd love to have this added to the group!

Oh I love that sun shine and smile......... Great capture!

love this!

Love that almost nothing is a disposable after one use in the photo.

This chick is 'some kind of clean. She's even leaning on her vacuum. I bet we could eat off of her grittiest corner and feel confident she had sterilized it.
